An Angel In Disguise

You planted a seed
in the hole you left
in my open heart
and walked away
to let me grow
each heavenly moment
as eyes have dried
with a softer heart
exploring the beauty
of life's real fairy tale
expanding imagination
attending to the breath
to breathe beauteous gifts
the ones you left behind
and so many more
like lessons from an angel
of the light there is in all
and how once I was blinded
that you too are an angel
so at times it is I wonder
if you will ever know
I think you will
I hope you do

There's such a wonderful and compelling rhythm in this. Especially the opening is very strong - and the last lines are just the perfect last lines, somehow... ah, well, I always was a great sucker for rhythm and melody ;-) Thanks.
