the waiters

as i walked around the square tonight,
i noticed a new exhibit in the local museum
numerous foot and a half tall statues
all nudes, dark gray, and none had arms,
the facial features were incredibly life like
the forms realistic,
but instead of arms in the places arms should be,
there were beautiful wings
these were not angels
they were humans
the artist had done a wonderful job peeking my curiosity
i recalled the verse,
"those who wait upon the Lord will mount up with wings like eagles"
maybe these statues should be called the waiters.
