Oooh interesting.
Perceived as light incarnate
Winged beauty and grace
“Be not afraid” meant something more
Winged terror of many eyes and limbs
Freeze in fear and hold your breath
But listen to the message they bear
Harbingers and Omen-bringers
Deliverers of the dead
Shadowing those whose faith remains
Flutter of feathers and silence
A rush of wind then nothing at all
