Wings

Open the wings of your thought

to see the light

and the majesty of this world…

It is true, I mark you

the saying…

that men have entertained us

without knowing it

We alight beside you

Unseen

unless commanded by our Maker

to reveal

Sometimes that revelation may be

partial

As with a touch

feather-like upon your cheek

the squeeze of the shoulder

close to your neck

ever so light

Others speak of a mighty wind

Sweeping them as if from nowhere

But out of the danger that suddenly

befell them

Our downdraught alone can shake nations

should the Powers and Principalities move as one

But that is rare

Done only upon the utterance of

The Most High Ancient of Days

We, Their royal circle

We, the Proclamation of their Existence

Their Deity

On other times we will sit

and talk with you

When you are quiet and at peace

Wondering why that sense of oneness

Overcomes you;

That gentle touch of the finger

at the appointed hour

That shifts your eyes to the clock

Above the counter

quietly reminding you

your desk awaits

It is time to get back to your work

We are the unseen

above the battlefield

We do not engage

But we do assist in a myriad ways

Quickening your senses

Alerting you to danger

Not often

we will even speak out a word

singular

awaking you

usually your name

just one syllable

but so powerful, so real

that every instance is marked

on the time line of your life

You recall every instance

Like our Maker

Your Creator

We are outside time

And thus we move the heavenlies

Like you, we see the past

But we see the future too

before it is unfolded;

Life’s blueprint opened up to us

sufficient to enable us to assist.

But the rest concealed

to guard against our attempting

to overcome your free will,

The directive of our Maker

The Most High Ancient of Days

But here is the difference

Between you and me

When you are in that most secret place

In communion with Them

Not even the Great Archangel Michael

nor even Lucifer

can hear your utterances

That communication is secret
