Winged Messenger



Winged Messenger

The book came to us as the gift of love from days of old.
And somewhere, as I read the words, a blessed dream took hold.
The vision left me breathless as the messenger took flight
Unbound by time or place and moving at the speed of light.

We soared above the trembling earth; He whispered in my ear,
“The mysteries of the Universe can best be seen from here.
The Light was sent into the world to take away your fear.
To shepherds in the field it came upon a midnight clear.”

Author notes

"The Book" gives us an overview of humanity's fallen state, and proclaims to all mankind the existence and purpose of the Most High God. Love, peace, and joy to the world.

    I was just telling my ten year old grandson how "The BooK" was our guide to a good life on Earth. Now, I had to make him understand that this does not mean that we will not have sorrows and/or troubles but at least we will know, if we study, we will know how to survive everything.

    I had a dream much like this poem when I was a much younger woman. Very peaceful and filled with Light. I see we have another angel joining this site. Have a good ride poet and be blessed.

    Excellent!


    Much Love & Respect ♥

    Impacting and the words, compact...Still hold
    court with solemn intent. I have a small suggestion:
    "Unbound by time or place and moving at the speed of light the spirit
    Took me high above the clouds and whispered in my ear" is a bit over
    the other lines...Why not do a slight splitting and give this poem
    emphasis in two parts. Something like~
    "Unbound by time or place and moving at the speed of light
    Spirit took me high above the clouds, whispered in my ear"
    Putting a space between this line and "Unbound by time or place and
    moving at the speed of light". I somehow think that would allow the
    lines to gain even more emphasis. Lovely ending as I have always known
    that line to evoke ethereal imagery. Blue

      Thanks so much for your encouraging words. I'm a new kid on the block here and still learning how to navigate this site. God has promised great things to us and, like you, I am expecting.
      May He bless you abundantly.
