Jun 2015
She runs downhill
With the wind at her back.
She has wings on her feet
Smoke trails from the back
But she trips on a lace
And falls to the ground
Flat on her face
With a cracking sound
And tears spring to her eyes
And the lip starts to shake
Taken by surprise
Did anything break?
Invincible no more
With blood galore
But an angel wraps her wings around her
And she feels eternal love surround her
Nothing deep here - just a poem about comforting my daughter after she fell. I don't see myself as an angel but she does :)
