Annunciation
( The Annunciation by Arthur Hacker) He stood wrapped in air said as angels do Have no fear Then he proclaimed something in a language I didn’t comprehend Lord how much we don’t understand of the most important things Then I was left alone No one can know how lonely it is when an angel departs The world is then immense open and empty you lack voice to describe it no hand is friendly enough words are all mute and tethered From now on even an eternity is too short for awaiting ~Anna Kamienska
