How I Met A Different Angel Poem by Roula Pollard

Angel
I met you inside me like a belfry
a church tower to hear inside me
the sounds of universe, sounds of your heart
to hear your whispers, messages, warnings
a tower bell adorned with bougainvillea blossom
housed by bird symphonies day and night

Angel
I met you inside me like pure Peace
before volcanic hate and battles erupted in the world
I built you in the center of my heart's city
to record people's love symphonies, kisses of pairing
to hear the Earth's voice hugging people, voices of affection
to hear the symphony of planets in love

Angel
I met you inside my soul
you break my ego, hate, violence, ignorance
and like a clear river of quiet affection
you, my first divine experience on earth
love multiplied like divine breeze
to fill the world with love's reality
