Lifted up on unseen wings,
walk with heads held high,
and on just a little lighter feet.
Serenity in the light of love
sent from heaven above.
Cruel are the ways of the world,
even in the kiss of tranquility.
Do not overlook the one within
your life today to embrace
you in nirvana on earth.
For I have been touched by
and held by a earthly angel.
Taken me far from the places
I see and the pain locked inside.
Understanding of my inner being
not alone for that moment in time.
In the arms of the Angels
may you find some comfort here.

I think in times of woe, we tend to need to feel a faith, or have faith in the unseen to help us on our path. Your words have truly embraced that feeling and I am thankful to have read it.
Thank you very much for your lovely entry!

Very beautiful writing here. This is so very truthful too, never overlook the earthly angels that surround you here on earth. It is so easy to miss them completely. Well done with this.
