Portrait of an Angel

Portraying a portrait 

of an angel with no wings

I sit and ponder of life and things

beautiful is this angels tear

for even with no wings

an angel shows no fear

the portrait is complete

the showing is drawing near

the portrait of a wingless angel 

with one beautiful tear

the curtain is drawn

the audience gasps

for this portrait is of an angel

with the devil in it's clasp

Even good people do bad things, sometimes they think what they are doing is right but they are so wrong... and as humans we are all exposed to temptation. Excellent poem.

[Holly Mason]

Sigh. May I borrow your angel, Holly? I could use a little protection, about now.

[Holly Mason]

yes you can hope you are o.k.

[therisa]

Am feeling very fragile, today.

[Holly Mason]

that is the sweetest way I have ever read of saying I am not o.k. today if you need a friend I am here and the wingless angel will take a bit to get there she is taking the bus but as always she will arrive she will fight and wingless or not she will win

The past four days have been rough, for me, especially concerning my management of my diabetes. My sugar readings have been, in the hypoglycemic range (Low blood sugar).

[Holly Mason]

I do not know much about this condition but you need to take care of yourself should you check with a doctor and make sure nothing else has changed?

[therisa]

Will be visiting my doctor's office, tomorrow, to upload my glucose monitor, and talk with the nurse, about the past 4 past. Has been a bit of an emotional rollercoaster here. Things are settling down now. Able to get past the writer's block of late.

[Holly Mason]

well good writer's block...no wonders your sugars are off....diagnosis write three pieces and call me in the morning...just trying to make you smile

[therisa]

thank you, Holly.

[therisa]

Holly, can I give back your Angel, to you?

[Holly Mason]

angels are all around...just enjoy the wings we have been given

[therisa]

I will.

[Frieda P]
