Wings

If I listen closely I can hear
The sound of wings.

Wings of condors,
Wings of eagles,
Wings of fairies,
Wings of doves.

Brushing my heart
Like a memory,
They sweep away the dust of years.

Underneath,
Shining, radiant,
Gently stirring, gently stretching,
Reaching to enfold me,
The wings
Of the Angel of Los Angeles.



Written the day after I had re-connected with Kath after being lost to each other for almost 30 years.
