Driven by Faith

Driven by Faith
 
Faith is the vital
Nourishment for the
Development of invention
 
Invention is a ship
Sailing against the current
The current is complacency
That life is settled into
 
Complacency is the crew
Of the ship too fearful
To keep it on course
 
Fear is begotten
By the mistrust of
What the future
May bring
 
The future is the
Fog shrouded harbor too
Obscure to lead
Invention to its destiny  
 
Faith is still the ship
Sailing into the unknown
Fully confident despite
Its obstacles

Winner of the Faith & Hope Award, issued 3/1/13, by The Society of American Poets
