este angel

from the ABC set POETRY - A Passage of Motion 2

this angel wears no
tagged jeans
nor hairdo with the latest
wild colours

este angel is simply a blond
young lady

wishes to be a darling
for mom and dad
innocent to life’s pitfalls

bathed in love

Isn't it interesting that today's society seems to use that 'abnormal' image to represent tolerance and growth and yet the 'ordinary' is often discriminated against by those very same people?

I like the straight-forwardness of your poem and thus advise that you expand on it as I think this is a subject worth exploring and with your skill in writing I think there is no risk in dissecting this poem a little ;-)

As always, a big well done.

Nathan.

Thank you so much, Nathan. For someone so young in writing, your insight is significant. And I will do what you suggest; in fact my mind is clicking right now. Check out this poem in a day or two. Cheers. RLP
