Angel in the Shadows


 The Inspiration for this poem comes from the great Persian scholar, Poet, theologian, and mystic Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Rūmī and the Photo above that I took in 2007.

"The Morning Breeze has secrets to tell you, do not go back to sleep." ~ Rumi


Angel in the Shadows

In painted skies, sunset falls,
the clouds reveal your shape,
storms in brilliance, heavens halls,
leave my mouth agape.

Angel in the shadows,
embraced by empathic light,
inspiring moments set me free,
on foundations firm and bright.

Guidance born, in morning peace,
revealing secrets of my soul,
gathered light from endless stars,
to keep my spirit whole.

Feelings lift, awakened now,
the future no longer grey,
bathed in peaceful radiance,
new outlook here to stay.
-----------------

Do not give into doubt now that the moment has arrived. Overcome obstacles by standing firm on secure foundations and lead the way out.
