Simple Verse.No.12. Angela Was An Angel Comments

Always wore a smile Was ready to walk an extra mile She followed every rule Appeared incessantly cool None she has hurt In speech, never was she curt.......touching expression with nice theme. All good qualities of Angela have been nicely painted here. But was she happy inside as it did seem from outside? A beautiful poem amazingly shared.10

@ Valsa George, As usual, a beautiful poem this too is! Inner conflicts of human mind has been honestly portrayed here. Human beings can be angel like, but not angels. 'At last Angela decided not to be an angel And resolved to dispense with that label' - This is the natural outcome, however strict military discipline Angela might have wanted to impose upon herself. I appreciate your honest and truthful depiction of human frailty, rather than glorifying only the angelic beauty.

Gabriel is very enterprising with his missions whereas your Angela is mesmerising with her traits and charms But where is she going to surface next?

It is never easy to be an angel if there is the undercurrent of unrest within. A nice poem on human predicament.

if life is blessed so my Angella Angela was an angel She always cared She always shared Never was she wild Always so mild She seemed very polite None she could indict

Nobody's perfect, and if you meet someone perfect there's no way they can be happy being perfect. This was my favorite verse: Never tending to her own hurt Of her needs she wasn't alert Her authority she could never wield To others whims, she did simply yield Beneath the façade of her calm was conflict Which under military discipline she did constrict Its not only the rhyming that I enjoy, but the level of insight to the inner workings of a person like Angela. In this verse the reader gets a real sense of who she is, and her struggle. Anyhow this was another masterpiece on your part, beautifully written! Poema Perfecto ~Nika

An excellent write Valsa. Angela showed her human side when things got a little rough for her. Still she persevered.

Having all the Godly qualities Angela leading a life of an angel............Valsa.....but could not be herself............... Very insightful and inspiring and great write as usual................

Angela was an angel, but inside she had lost herself in her total obsession with having total control of her life that made her perfect, without satisfying her own important needs, so Angela decided to be herself and had much more fun! An interesting and delightful write!

At last Angela decided not to be an angel And resolved to dispense with that label..............being an angel for others doesn't always help.............its good to be angelic in your behaviour, but not always innocent...........wonderful write....you can do wonders in simple verses too.................

One must feel happy inside while performing all duties. That is the state of true angelhood. Even flight safety instructions state that you breathe oxygen first before helping others do so. Beautiful poem.

it doesn't pay to be always positive, but some still are made that way.
