A Pure White Feather - a photo on Flickriver

            A pure white feather floats silently towards the ground.
As it lands, I pick it up, 
and rest it gently in the palm of my hand.

Perhaps it's a delicate fragment from an Angel's wing, 
possibly, a token of heavenly love, 
or maybe, I see it as my own delight in a gentle white feather.

But as my eyes alight on this fragile plume, 
my spirit lifts, 
and I have a feeling
that my Guardian Angel is near me, 
and is ever watchful.

I believe this perception will always stay with me, 
and each time I glimpse a pure white feather
I will offer thanks to my
imperceivable protector.
