an angel fell in fiery grace
with wings a-flame
and wounded face
as distant clouds hid the sun
a screaming silence
enveloped the one
who's aching dreams were plundered there
weeping tears of blood
that filled the air
an ancient bond now torn asunder
and tossed aside
like fading thunder...

Nicely written yet such a sad undertone........We never like to think of death and then the death of an angel, human or otherwise. "Tossed aside like fading thunder" This presents great imagery to me.......The tossing of one so quickly is such sadness. Thanks so much for entering and best of luck in the contest.

I like how your poems always have a rhyme to them. And always very descriptive.

I am in awe right now! This matches my view on The Shot Down Angel almost perfectly. The rhyming adds to the haunting quality and everything about this write is beautiful. I especially love the last three lines. 'fading thunder' a wonderful play on words.
