Angels.. <br />do you believe in angels? <br />do angels believe in you? <br />which question, the more sensible? <br /> <br />suppose angels <br />to know greatly more than us.. <br />suppose, that’s why they’re there… <br /> <br />suppose, they know space is not fully real: <br />enter it knowingly, to deliver us <br />a holy message, wearing whiteness, light, <br />which would announce them <br />truthful, good of all good, and beautiful.. <br /> <br />suppose, they know time is not fully real: <br />enter it knowingly, to deliver us <br />a message that’s eternal, phrased <br />in terms of human life, direct, immediate; <br /> <br />suppose them, to be untroubled <br />by human frailty: knowing all <br />they need to know; messengers <br />of love beyond all love; <br />rejoicing in the heavenly joy <br />of living under perfect law.. <br /> <br />suppose… suppose… <br />that all this living metaphor, <br />so recognisable to human mind, <br />lives in each human heart..<br /><br />Michael Shepherd<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/angels-46/
