angels of love

angels of love are
in our blood.
they make us smile;
give us dreams of
lollipops.

they let us see
with x-ray eyes &
open our hearts to
pour the laughter
in.

this doesn’t happen
for every
two.

they found us in
the dark & lit us
up.

we hugged.

they fused our
hearts in searing
fire.

we kissed.

they sparkled our
eyes; polished our
skin; lightened our
bones.

we giggled.

they blessed us; blessed
us; blessed us;

then,

they left us
on our earthly
own

ascending to heaven
on their upward
way.
