Borne on the Wings of Angels





When one feels calm

Calm as a summer breeze

Could it be that he is lifted by the wings of angels?

Lifted away,

Away from this world of sin and hatred in which we live

To a place

Where evil cannot reach

To a place

Where peace is perpetually known,

Where thought is free to roam--

Without the constraints of a physical environment.

Where one is free,

Free to be

And only be.

Without schedules, without deadlines.

Where time is not important.

Somewhere, somewhere up there.

Somewhere between Heaven and Earth,

Not too far from Heaven

Not too far from this physical world.

A place that the spirit goes

When Borne on the wings of Angels.

Also published in Mosaic , "Borne on the Wings of Angels" has as yet been the best received of my works, Generating considerable conversation around campus during a contest held prior to the publication in Mosaic.
As such I am particularly proud of it myself and hope that you night enjoy it half as much here as those who have already seen it seem to have.
