admiration

By Mord

Seraphim smooth and white, why are you saddened so,
With downy wings that brush the ground
hanging heavy with winter snow.
Upon your knees you pray your plight,
With a holy vigilance within,
On your shoulders slumped wings do fight against past mortal sins.
Yet guard you do my mortal doom,
To be released unto this hallowed moon,
I thank you for your prayer tonight.
