What inspired this poem is an infamous poem "Tyger" (By William Blake) and Shaggy's "Angel" ... I was watching BET while reading Tyger. You get the idea.
Tyger is my favorite poem of all!!
*Psst -- Click on Angel for the lyrics; Tyger for the full version of the poem.

My Angel
Clad in blinding white light
Pale in the moonlight
Such beauty, such grace
Running in the slow-motion pace
Through the necks of the woods
Passing by the quiet neighborhood
Stopping by my bedroom balcony door
I woke up to you knocking, “Who are you here for?”
“I came by for you”, you replied
Felt like I could cry
No one would fly across the country
Just to be with a mere mortal me
What hand, what art
Dare to grasp my heart?
Aye, it’s my angel!
What arm, what eye that see
That dares to hold me
And stare in my eyes?
Together, we flew to the unlimited skies
Racing with the birds,
Laughing at the world…
Surely this must be a dream,
If it is, I never want to wake up and scream
“Angel! My angel!”
Always and forever
Will you be mine and ever.
