Silhouette of an Angel

Chris Stonecipher on Jun 12, 2011

I was inspired by cloud shape by the water that looked like a Silhouette of an Angel.

With waves rippling across the water,

It was only time before I spot her.

A silhouette of an angel in the horizon.

She’s an angel full of love,

Look she’s holding a white dove.

You wonder why this man fell in love.

This time the roles reverse,

She pulls out the love note first.

It reads, that young boy I came to know,

Turns out to be that man I’m proud to show,

To my friends, my family,

He may be soft and gentle, but very manly.

He has my trust and he knew it was a must.

Hush he says, I want no man to know the recipe.

The key to your heart, and where I put it you see.

Soft & fluffy poem, but packs a solid message about the peace that comes from knowing you can trust the one person who holds the key to your heart to never abuse the privilege.
