Come rescue me, angel of dreams.

Good morning!
Dawn spreads her wispy pink angel wings over the morning.
—Terri Guillemets
Pierced flight
thorns and stings
and those such things
just make stronger
our angel wings
—Terri Guillemets
P.S. Thank you to everyone who has written letting me know that Katya Elise Henry got a tattoo of this poem. Honestly, I didn’t know who she was and had to look it up. But that’s pretty cool, and a nice tattoo.
Party angels
Every time a champagne bottle pops, a party angel gets its wings.
