Locks fair and fine halo a tender heart;
myriad greens and blues screen depth’s delight;
Sacred softness, priceless treasure of art –
secreted within through exclusive right.

Wings hidden, invisible to the eye;
present lithe limb and sculpted shoulder;
angelic voice soaring up through the sky:
Paradise to the mortal beholder

Two brilliant white gates are shiny and bright
Revealing the joy of rapture in mirth;
The bells begin to peal: the world is right,
A gift from above, a potent rebirth.

Inspired by God, offered on your face
Agony of judgment, glory of grace.
