A Christmas poem about loving the beauty of Earth as angels love Heaven:

Could there be angels waiting in the wings,
How might we call upon their ecstasy?
Rainbows are not visible on days
In which we are the glory and the light.
So may we hear the songs our sunshine sings,
The music that adorns our winsome ways;
May we know how good it is to be
As we celebrate the holidays,
So much in love we weep as angels might.

Somewhere there are seraphim
Singing night and day
Ecstatically, eternally,
In their seraphic way.

Somewhere there are seraphim
Singing songs of praise
To God, Who sits upon His throne
In glory as they gaze.

Somewhere there are seraphim,
Trillions, quintillions strong,
A masterful mass madrigal
Arising from the throng.

Somewhere there are seraphim
Singing each its part.
Where? Why here! Can't you hear?
Deep within the heart.
