Angels of Light

chilled souls demands constantly for war
continuously seeking the path of evil
will to power overgrows their being
dark shadows threaten in black clouds
on their grim ground grows no compassion
hate sow death and destruction in violent acts
grenades don't fit into an enlightened world
angels of light are a harbinger of love
condition is that people live not only for themselves
with open arms lovingly giving and receiving
nightingales will sing over new blue
in an inner strength where peace can grow

Inspiring, entertaining, stimulating. Loved this line..."nightingales will sing over new blue..". Simple but conveying basic truth- how to live peacefully. Thanx. Love.
