angels in our shadows...


in our shadows, live the angels of our lives, ever watching, ever protecting...
clinging to our earthly form, echoing our every movement...


they silently watch and pray that our journeys be made
without impediment and with godspeed...



ethereal and other worldly they walk our paths
casting no shadow themselves, only inhabiting the outline of our own...



praying for our comforts, lighting our dreams with golden hues,
angels in our shadows, silent sentinels...



just over a shoulder, they exist, ready with a word of wisdom
or comfort... if we take the time to listen...
hear them speak, hear them sing...

angels in our shadows...

  2. AAkriti, the metal angel actually has holes in her skirt which allows the light to shine through onto the background. The morning sun was just coming up and was casting this golden ethereal glow onto her metal facade. I am very pleased at how these turned out.
