Tears of an angel

------..--------

Winding up his wings

He sits on the steep end of the temple

The angel.

Down there people,

People touching

The marvels of ancient carvings,

People praying and wanting this and that

Everybody has his own hunger.

The eyes of the angel cloud.

Hear, the salt of the water,

Genesis of an ocean is always

By an angel's tear.

Poddar ~ This is deeply moving in the most spiritual sense.

This depth . . .

"Genesis of an ocean is always

By an angel's tear."

EXCELLENT for a QUOTE all by itself.

This is an awesome poem Poddar.

Blessings ~
Rene
