A harpist plucks Heavenly strings
sending ripples through
earthly vibration
These are sweet, sweet melodies
floating just above the
sound of silence
or,
is it that she knows?
Her gentle breath
reaches
raises hair on skin
causing butterflies to
take to flight
Yes
she knows her notes
are parting the shadows
whispering softly
to the loneliness in my soul
“Touch your heart, I’m there”
then I too
…know .

So beautiful: “touch your heart, I’m there”.
Melodious.
This is dreamy and delicious!!!
Lovely as usual, your work always imbues me with a sense of serenity.
DD2, this is gorgeous. Just as I’ve discovered the peaceful place where God is speaking to me, that “thin place” of discovery, so this angel’s music will be heard. Truly lovely writing, and thank you. Amy

“Touch your heart, I’m there”

So warm, lovely, perfect.
This poem is very touching. Sometimes we are touched by gentle mysteries that we know in our hearts are true.
Love this one.
I love these words…so wonderfully said:
“she knows her notes
are parting the shadows
whispering softly
to the loneliness in my soul
“Touch your heart, I’m there”
then I too
…know .”

Wow! This is amazing… especially the ending.
The poem was melodic itself and I especially saw a beautiful image in “Her gentle breath / reaches / raises hair on skin / causing butterflies to / take to flight”
parting the shadows, what a beautiful poem that leaves the reader feeling a secure peace.
Music can surely heal and sooth, or letting one get into the groove. Yours pulls the heart strings, just don’t pluck too many..haha
Really nice images painted here, the harpist kicked it off wonderfully and your endings have always been good, but have been amazing lately. Thanks.
The music heals, even our loneliness ~ Nice one ~

nice…making some beautiful music to minister to that heart…just touch it an i am there….nice….
Gorgeous words, they caress one’s soul! I love the sentiment~ You took a lyrical tone with string…love it~
I think I heard a harp playing as I read it. I feel my angels too. When everyone left at the same time the year of my empty nest, I remarked that I missed knowing their angels were here. Made it doubly empty. But I have mine and it stays close and warns me when I think I should be rash.
smiles…think i can hear her play..surely music in your lines today…i like
