If you are implying that poets are sweet, gentle, loving purveyors of all that is good I would have to say NO!

Poets are humans, with all the faults and cracks and individual variations that implies!. Angels are an idealised concept that have as much hope of being realised in human form as finding three hundred honest politicians agreeing on the best way forward!

Angels!? Sorry!. People!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

you are right!.!.!.!.!.!.and i love those words written there by 'ma'!.!.!.
if earth were like heaven, poets would really have angels!.!.!.i have also heard a myth that those who are poets on earth were angels at heaven!. god sent them down for the purpose of singing songs to mankind!. the reveal the mysteries of truth and beauty!.
Have you read the poem 'Bards of Passion and of Mirth' by Keats!? It is based on this idea!. Poets have two souls!. There poetic souls on earth and angelic souls on heaven!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Semper, I'm quite sure that Angels are humble, gentle, loving souls, with no malice, hatred, vitriol, venom, vindictiveness, spitefulness or any of the other vices that I see in quite a few of the so-called poets on this site!. So my answer would be "it ain't necessarily so"!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If this were so, there would be heavenly music from poets!. But what would happen to all the great poetry about the Human Condition!. About war and its consequences!? About hope for the future!? We would not have poems like "Sonnets from the Portuguese!." We would be missing a lot of great poetry!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If Earth were like Heaven, wouldn't Poets be Angels!?

Such heavenly words are poetry within a question!. This is beautiful!.

My first thought would be no!. But it'd depend mostly on opinion, considering who would be the equivalent to angels here!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If Earth were like Heaven, Everyone would be an angel, including poets!. Perhaps if it were like Heaven here on Earth, everyone would be a poet!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The Kingdom is around you and within you my friend! And poets, just maybe, can open eyes to that truth! Blessings, Semper!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm not sure I get that one, but my first thought is no!. Poets would still be poets!. I guess the toughest thing to picture is earth being like heaven!. :-)Www@QuestionHome@Com

We poets are angels, just look at us but it would be wrong to say all are from heaven!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't know!.
AMY G is here,
where is Heaven!?

No one must be an Angel, even if they have some of the touch!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If heaven is right here on earth, there are many angels very close to us!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Heaven and the Father await!. Earth/Life is the hell the body must endure and learn from to reach Home!.

That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!.
Listen to HIM!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I would say so,they have a great talent there!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
