Touched by an Angel
By Tatiana Pahlen

I rocked on the waves
face up to the sky,
hailing the soothing sun;
cruising dolphins
slowly passed me by,
waking me from my tranquil haze.
I watched their flips
and overhead stunts,
feeling elated, free.

An angelfish
faintly touched my feet
my mind and soul
merged to one;
Had I a pair of wings,
I would have kissed the sky,
for this blissful
moment of peace.
