Touched By An Angel



I hear you, I'm listening,
I believe in your songs of love
Your pounding heart, beats angel's art,
that falls from up above


Your invisible voice, soothes my soul,
painting vivid, golden memories
I watch you dance, with sweet romance,
that puts my heart at ease


I knew of you, before you spoke,
as your presence I felt strong
For I have found, a flame that shines,
within your precious, love song


Let love be life, let life be lived,
as you embark through candy dreams
As you softly soar, forevermore,
I hear you play upon my heartstrings


Caressing me, with heavenly chords,
my breath you take away
I find each note, divine you wrote,
that heals my yesterday


Like melodies, that cry for hope,
and sing sweet poetry
I've been touched, with love so much,
for you love me for me

    Such a romantic you are...you touch everyones hearts that read your work and make us all long for love so pure and true...I love the soft beautiful flow and deep feelings throughout, yet the ending was my favorite. It came with a sigh.
    Thank you for sharing your beautiful heart and soul with us all.
    Best to you, my friend.

    This is very pretty. The only part I don't understand is "as your presence I felt strong". I loved "Your pounding heart, beats angel's art that falls from above" What an image! Very intense. The only other part, IMO, is the part about candy dreams, it's sweet but for me it takes away something and maybe changes the color of the poem from like, fushia to soft pink. Does that make sense? I love it though it's very full of passion and beautiful lines that really grab your attention and paint a picture. Good job

    Wow...just WOW. This is SO beautiful. The feeling I got when I read this poem made me not want to stop reading! The italics made the poem have a somewhat dreamy feeling, plus the flow was very smooth, so I felt as though I was dreaming away upon a cloud. A nice feeling, mind you...
    "Like melodies, that cry for hope,
    and sing sweet poetry

    You did a tremendous job writing this poem. I'm not going to waste space saying how great of a job you did. Suffice it to say, your work is excellent.

    My one quibble is the italics. Writing something entirely in italics makes for a very hard read.

    Wow... I can see what all the applause is about. This is a really awesome poem. It has a regular rhyme scheme, and yet it diverges from a normal one, and it forms an original, if you get my drift. It's hard to explain, but yeah. This poem shows a lot of emotions and imagery, as well. You really know how to write poetry. Not only can you keep me reading through rhythm and structure, but your words are beautiful and paired all too perfectly. I can feel your thoughs within my own mind, and I know what you are feeling. Much props, my friend.

    This is an overall smooth and sweet write. It made for a pleasing read. In fact some of the lines are quite slick and meaningful. I could critique a few minor read speed irregularities, but I suppose the sacrifice of form was for content. Overall the trade off seems to have paid off. Kudos!

    What a lovely write, I could hear the music playing on the heart strings. May the harps of the angels and the elders play, upon the sea of glass mixed with fire, the song of Moses and of the Lamb, in through and around you and your family's lives. Thank you for your beautiful poem, keep on penning. Your friend, Heather

    Inspiring

    At first when I read the title to the poem, I thought it could be a little cliche, but then I actually read it, and my gosh, that was amazing. I loved how you described every last thing about this angel and you made it seem so real and vivid in my mind. Whatever inspired you to write this.. i hope it happens again, because my gosh, you have a gift. Don't ever lose that, and I hope to read more of your works soon.

    great piece of lit. !

    im so glad that you have found something like an angel.. i could sure use one of those right now. what i would give... to hear the voice of an angel, to tell me everything is ok and there is nothing to worry about. but of course that hath not happen, i am alone, lost, and confused.. my hopes are bruised. i dont know where to turn when i cannot feel teh presence of God... but i am so happy for you. so glad that you have that relationship with God the father, and you can feel the angels.. you have been truly blessed and i love to see others blessed in this way, again i am so happy you feel the presence.. you are an AMAZING author im sure you already know and dont need another comment from someone like me, but i just want you to know that this must be the best poem i have ever read by someone not yet published, it is a FANTASTIC write and i sincerely hope you get somewhere with your writing. thank you for being an inspiration.. mayeb with some prayer teh Lord will speak to me as well.. i pray he does. again, GREAT PIECE OF LITERATURE!!!

    ahhh yes. Where would we be without our angels? I have met a few of them here as well, my friend. The only problem is, I haven't quite figured out how to catch one. My butterfly net is too small and my fingers too slow. I tried dressing up a giant feather duster and playing some Cole Porter but all I got was a cross dresser in a wedding dress.

    Excellent poem, my friend. This might possibly be my new favorite Poeticweaver piece.

    Before you continue reading my comment it is quite critical and is not meant in any way offensive. If you do not wish to read a critical opinion and are sensitive please do not read below.

    For the 7-8 points I accrue on the comment i will send this back to you by way of promoting it in the features box. I am doing this as I do not want to be accused of point manipulation, and also i care about honest critiques and poetry - good and not so good.



    Very popular with the rest but not me I'm afraid. Line 3 makes no sense the whole poem relies upon rhyme over substance and its been done to death this theme and done better. Rhyming love with above is very cliched and i myself when i started writing did everything you've done here. The poems sweet but very unoriginal and the opening doesnt help as the thought of art falling from an angel in the sky seems like nonsense, How can this be possible with wings? do they draw with their toes?

    WOW! i am completely mesmerized.It was like a divine hymn , truly felt like heaven reading this. Its so pure and so beautifully written.
    I love the rhyme and fluidity of this write..its brilliant.
    my fav. lines:
    Caressing me, with heavenly chords,
    my breath you take away
    I find each note, divine you wrote,
    that heals my yesterday

    great work.
    thanks for sharing.

    Sweet and melodic like the drumming of a lovers heart. Such delicate wording you used to describe what is nearly an undescribable emotion. You minimized intensity of emotion to an understanding of words. Thank you for sharing such a gem. Truly a feast for the soul.

    Blessed be

    Oh my sweet Lord this is one of my favourite love songs by you
    Ditto Miykie I second her applause this is a stunning heartfelt write
    One of your best love songs
    Oh holy lights you can write the music for this song of tender tears and love
    Surely sent from heavenly love
    I am overtaken in your last line
    Yes I agree love is loving you for you
    I send you a wild rose to your soul
    So you know how I feel and love you so
