Poetry: Heaven's Child

When an angel breaths
And the world is invited
To Listen


How bright the moment
When the sound invites
The human soul
To Glisten


How fortunate are you?
When the angel is a child
And the call to love starts
To thicken


How precious the gift
The feet and fingertips
Of Heaven's Child safe
Sound and sleeping
