Voice of an Angel

I never looked up
I never saw your face
I never felt your skin
I never smelt your scent

except

I heard your voice
I heard your wisdom

now

I am blessed
I am alive

forever

I will search
I will find

My Angel

    You have a great flair for short, reflective pieces. Another one that held my attention and had me nodding along with it. My fav lines were:

    "I heard your voice
    I heard your wisdom

    now

    I am blessed
    I am alive"

    You start in a system of negatives. Yet there is a feeling of longing and desire that hides in the language that pulls the reader on to the next line hoping to find resolution.

    Then the poem opens up. you tell me, the reader strongly what you have received and I think it is a spiritual gift. The open spacing makes it feel spread across a period of time, perhaps hours or days but not minutes. The affirmation of your own personal power and space make it become strongly self affirming.

    "forever" such a big word in two syllables. The journey begins. The last line has many possible descriptions, many possible thoughts from the most infantile to the most deep philosophical or spritual. The sense of hope, genuine desire perhaps, even a certain madness echoes for me.

    I like this. Not because it is deep, but because it express the vibrancy and dynamic of a human spirit. Very much so...
    Love, Tom B.

    Suzi - This is lovely!! I really like the spacing. I see that "now" and "forever" can be the end of the line before and the line afterward simultaneously. Very clever! However, but and scent are more problematic.LOL
