Angels

So when we hear the work angle what is the first thing that comes to mind: A beautiful Olive skinned half naked figure with big white shiny winds and a kind look on their face, a naked baby with tiny wings holding a adorable bow and arrow or a really cute girl (depending on how your mind works).

aww... you just melted right there.

Well.. the most common reference to angels are in the Bible. From Genesis right to Revelations we find that  angels are spiritual beings often depicted as messengers of God. they do things like simply deliver a message to stand  guard by the tree of Good and Evil. 

So how did we get the image of a beautiful angel in our head?

 Actually from Paintings! painters took liberties when portraying angels, giving them wings was a visually interesting way to identify who was the angel  in a painting full of regular figures (wings were also used in the early church to denote that these creatures lived in the sky). [1]

angels are easier to identify with wings

Archangels like Michael and Gabriel were given contemporary military status, there are more types of angels: Seaphim, Chetubim,Chrysolite etc...
But if you look in to Bible the writers have done more that write what angels did, but have also noted down the appearance of an angel looks like, specially people like Isaiah and Ezekiel who actually uncounted angels first hand. So according to them angels look like:

Seaphim

the seraphim,  have six wings and need all of them to cover their body, lest they blind/incinerate whoever is unlucky enough to bump into one.
"Seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet,and with two they were flying. At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke. Isaiah 6:2,4."

 Thrones 

This was the appearance and structure of the wheels: They sparkled like chrysolite, and all four looked alike.
Each appeared to be made like a wheel intersecting a wheel. Ezekiel 1:16

Chetubim

In Ezekiel 10:14 describes them as frightening four-headed monstrosities that included the faces of a man, an eagle and a lion.
 "The cherubim had four faces: One face was that of a cherub, the second the face of a human being, the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle. Ezekiel 10:14"

Know what you are referring to! the next time you call you're girlfriend an Angel...

Until We Meet by Agatha Winslow

My nights will be a little colder
My days a little shorter
My heart will beat a little less rapid
Until we meet

I know that my arms will be empty
My mind hurting from the constant thought of you
Minutes will seem to be hours
Hours will seem to be months
While months will seem like eternity
Until we meet

The stars in the sky will not affect me
with its gleaming sparkles of life
Until I am gazing at them in your arms
And the food that I eat will not be as fulfilling and nourishing
Until it is you that I share the my food with
And Until we meet

I will not feel whole
My world will seem incomplete
Until that wonderful day
When we make our first contact
Cant wait for the moment so great
When our hearts combine
Longing eyes will wait
Until we meet
