The Deerhurst Angel
21 Sunday Oct 2018
We tried to see it at Odda’s Chapel.
Was that a wing, a halo, or just damp?
Our epiphany was not forthcoming,
for all our straining interpretation.
We went to St Mary’s adjacent church.
A child on the path pointed out a sign:
‘To the Angel’ – it wasn’t evident.
Then we walked across an apse’s ruins;
squinted upwards; craned our necks.
The elusive angel was always there.

When you feel ill and spend all Saturday painting a Gaudi House and then
hate it, scrub it all out and freely paint into the mess that is left on the
canvas.
Suddenly, you see Aurora, Goddess of the Dawn. Why? Or is it Kate Moss?
The frustrations of trying to be an artist…
