The Unheard Poet
She wrote about love
And shared the words with everyone
That if love rules us all
Then everybody’s in harmony.
But no one ever listened;
People chose to argue and hate each other.
Sadly, she was unheard by all.
She wrote about beauty
And shared the words with everyone
That real beauty is within the heart of the person,
And is not based on the physical appearance at all.
But no one ever listened;
People mocked the “ugly” ones.
How sad it was when she was unheard once more.
She wrote about happiness
And shared the words with everyone
That real happiness is not based on wealth,
But by contentment and sharing a good laugh.
No one ever listened to her;
People neglected their loved ones and busied themselves with work.
Unluckily, she was unheard.
She wrote about the animals
And shared the words with everyone
That those animals have the right as well
To live peacefully and freely on land.
But no one ever listened;
People killed and captured them.
Poor poet, why does she have to be unheard?
She wrote about peace and unity
And shared the words with everyone
That if people would only live in harmony
Then everybody’s happy and unharmed.
But no one ever listened;
Many nations were at war.
Sadly, poorly, unluckily, unheard she was again.
She wrote about the children
And shared the words with everyone
That every child deserves to be loved
And to be defended from harm.
But no one ever listened;
Many parents hurt and abused them.
Regretfully, “unheard” that’s what she was.
She wrote about God and prayer
And shared the words with everyone
That every problem has a solution
If only we pray and trust in God.
But no one ever listened;
People did not seek help from Him and ended their lives.
How sad the poet was when she was unheard many times.
She wrote about nature and its beauty
And shared the words with everyone
That we will truly have a paradise on earth
If we take good care of our Mother land.
But no one ever listened;
People did not care; they polluted and destroyed the world.
Over and over and over…unheard poet…that’s what she was.
The unheard poet has no more poems
To spread and share with everyone;
She gave up and lost inspiration
Because no one really cares.
She’s giving YOU this one last poem;
It’s all up to you now.
Listen to her, share it, and spread it
Or ignore it if you like…
Just let her die
As the “unheard poet”.
