For you, the brightest flame in my life. So dear to my heart that words could never say.




No place for Angels...

 

Planet Earth

 

No place for those who  listen to every heart

and what it has to say.

 

No place for those who will step aside

to give you the time of day.

 

For time is money now on planet Earth

A  price so high for which they are left to pay.

 

So no more the beauty - Anxious,

stepping forth from the dark cocoon.

 

No more gossamer thoughts

reaching upward toward the waning moon.

 

No more scent of Lilac

to wash away the tears of spring.

 

No strength remaining

to unfurl the broken wings.

 

No place for angels planet Earth

What price we'll pay for want of time

to value their very worth.

 

No place for those who hold the child dear

and who will care for its every need.

 

No place for those who seek no comfort

from the impostor of self greed.

 

No place for those who stand against the past

and will never, ever concede.

 

No place for angels so it seems.

No place for angels and no place for their dreams.

 

No place for angels.

 

Planet Earth.

What?! No more scent of Lilac? Inconceivable!! ;) Your poem's sentiment made me think of POTF's song ''The Beautiful Ones'', too. It also led my thoughts on how good people often are the first to be chewed out. A planet of mysteries... hm. This is beautifully written, definitely sensitive. A kind heart shining through is the strong impression coming through to me. Très bon :)
