Hey there, friend! Ellie stopping by with a quick review for this lovely poem of yours Let's jump right in!

To begin, this poem gives such a soft tone. I love how you use imagery of gentle things to create this entire environment with words. for example:

I have hoped for soft lips and perfect faces

Sunkissed skin and hair like snow

I have hoped for traces

Of love that sets me aglow

I have prayed for angels

Hello! Here's my review!

This poem beautifully captures the yearning for something divine and perfect. The repetition of "I have prayed for angels" creates a poignant rhythm, emphasizing the speaker's deep longing and persistent hope.

What stands out is the vivid imagery and the juxtaposition of ethereal angels with human imperfections. Lines like "sunkissed skin and hair like snow" and "wrap me in their dove wings" paint a clear and serene picture of the ideal the speaker dreams of.

The poem also delves into the theme of unfulfilled desires and the acceptance of God's love as a sufficient solace. The line "the love of God is more than enough" shifts the focus from longing to a sense of contentment and faith.

The contrast between the dream of angels and the reality of people who "wouldn't break promises and lie" adds a layer of realism to the poem. It reflects the speaker's journey from idealistic dreams to a more grounded acceptance.

Nice work and keep it up!

Sunny Moments

I have hoped for soft lips and perfect faces

Sunkissed skin and hair like snow

I have hoped for traces

Of love that sets me aglow

I have prayed for angels

That dance

And hug

And wrap me in their dove wings

And laugh

And love

Hello, this is AkuRashomon and I am here to review/comment of a poem that depicts a person who wishes and prays for a wonderful person or an angel to appear in their life. Whether it is a friend or a lover, the narrator asks God for a 'heaven sent' person to appear in their life. This reminds me of my friend. She had a lot of friends who turned out to be horrible people. Most people may act kind then the next, they destroy you, that shows their true colors. An angel will come when you least expect it hehe. Praying for one is good, just don't find that "angel" or special someone, don't wait either. They come in unexpected times and I know that. I do hope you get one someday. They would be a perfect muse for your talent of writing.
