SOLDIER OF HEAVEN NO MORE

This is the second part to my poem SOLDIER OF HEAVEN if you have not read it http://www.writerscafe.org/writing/BearMage/1614746/

                   Picture by Mitch Zorich
  
Of all heaven's soldiers on earth, she was the supreme
And her efforts were about to grant her wildest dream
Once a lost soul balanced in limbo awaiting judgment
Drafted into the service of the lord as her way to repent
Then from heaven to earth as one of God's many eyes
Marking deeds of living souls both the truth and the lies
Divinely her butterfly wings glitter every color under the sun
But the right to raise from heavens soldier had she won
Glorious would it be flying with an angels gossamer wings
This being her final goal and the very nature of all her dreams
Now standing alone she can be a soldier of heaven no more
For her changing butterfly form tells her what is now in store
Between heaven and earth and between angel and butterfly
She must prove herself worthy now or lose her wings and die
All heaven's legions turn from her so truly she stands isolated
But one unselfish act more and to an angel will she be elevated
                                           Bear

This is such a great poem Bear, I like the way it's written, easy to read, and pleasant for the mind. Great job. It's weird how reading a poem can make you high :-)

[Bear]

You welcome, It's been a time, I'm busy Writing a novella for my department, I'm submitting it instead of a research paper :-)

I can really see the importance, or how well a poem can work when you include the 3 w's you speak of in your poetry advice column. It really does make a rich piece of work. I am swept away to your soldier's world.

[Bear]

Thank you, poetry is easy and anyone can write it once you have an understanding of the guidelines. Once you have that then you can start to experiment and create your own style. I tell people that poetry has been my hobby and best friend for over 50 years, you can't have a truer or more trusted friend :~)

The story telling blew me away

Then from heaven to earth as one of God's many eyes
Marking deeds of living souls both the truth and the lies
Divinely her butterfly wings glitter every color under the sun
But the right to raise from heavens soldier had she won
