The kiss of an angel-
Across my check
Sent me soaring in the mist
In the clouds from below.

I opened my arms-
And flew – through-
Into a Blue jay’s gentle song- until I lost my wings.
The earth held in its breath-

The thought to thanks that angel-
Never came Across my Mind.
For if I had not been lifted-
There would be nowhere to fall.
