Interesting Angel Vision.
A contemporary William Blake, Donald Pass worked from his experience of the Resurrection – a vision he had, that told of life after death and the greater powers beyond us. I love these deeply spiritual images of Donald Pass
“A spark of genius, a very rare talent.”
Sir John Rothenstein, late Director of the Tate Gallery
Drops of light mutter through gates of gold.
A single rose walks solitary asleep
Red shivers of my heart thrust out and hold
An angel, sent by God to keep.
Birds, trees, and hedges hold
Each other in a green embrace
And dance and twist down white country lanes,
Wild circles make around my angel of grace.
With purple face the mountain sleeps
White walls of the church wear garments of slate
But now the light shouts onward through the gate
Deep avenues of tombs pronounce the fate
Of souls no longer in despair
The angel with the lion’s face in standing there!
