Bank Of Heaven
www.facebook.com/WRRPoetry [Bank Of Heaven]
In awe we shall behold Adonai’s agenda
in heaven, where love, not gold, is legal tender.
From here we can’t take forth;
no place up there for money’s worth.

On it angels trample with a smile
for what it’s worth is not worthwhile.
For it’s sake many are uncivil.
“It’s the root of every evil”,
the bane of many a nation,
leading all to temptation.

Man’s material vanity
is stringently divorced from immortality.
Wisdom entails investment
after investigation before commitment.
Save for that rainy day;
quadruple your glory home pay.

If real gain is made in heaven,
no place on earth can be a haven.

meet the poet: Jack Vince
