angels dream at night
filling our souls with longing
ever seek the gate

My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends-
It gives a lovely light!

Ah ha! Melanie, you've got it! :)
I think that longing is good, especially if it comes to fruition (find the gate).
I enjoyed reading and contemplating your haiku/verse. The sleeping angels are a nice concept.
..
so that is where the longing comes from, makes perfect sense that they would not let us forget. Sweet poem
Oh my, thank you for reading my Haiku. I have been away on vacation and am a bit rusty. Must get my mind together. Sleeping angels are a favorite of mine. I have missed everyone.
love, Melanie
My dear friend. Thanks for stopping by. The longing is the heart of one's life. To return home in the end.
Hope all is well with you and your family. Have just read you Cocoon poem on OSI. Just lovely. I will be reading some of the poems today. Keep strong my friend and as always trust in God.
love, Melanie
