Angel For A Day Poem by Aram Stefanian

Angel For A Day



My guardian angel had me fill his shoes for a day:
I got a bang out of flying over the rotating Earth.
By gorgeous mainlands and oceans was I blown away,
Hoping my eagle eye would lead me to my native hearth.
When I saw myself as a sprout, I started instantly to freak.
Tears flowed down the kid's cheeks: he'd lost hide-and-seek
And was summoning angels to help him find a secret hideout.
He saw me and was so frightened that gave a puzzled shout.
Then I tried to cool him down, but he'd run away from me.
I could feel my haunting anxiety for frustrated desires
And I realized that fear had always been my worst enemy.
As long as we're afraid of never knowing fear, we're spare tires.
