- Written On the Wall - by Desire at All poetry

She walked on clouds
with wings extended,
allowed wind beneath
to breathe

while others walked
below her feet
without an upwards glance
of Dreams in view

but one child
that drew a picture of an Angel
who left him a kiss
and also a charcoal picture;

written on his wall
cradled within the arms
of Light.
