Without Passion

Without Passion
 
A poem not written at all
Emptied out by rhetoric
A song not sung at all
Emptied of all passion
 
In touch with the mind
But not that of the spirit
That dwells in the soul
 
Every man made dream
Without the spirit’s guidance,
That touch of God within,
Is never finished
Without passion
That motivational voice
Of the spirit,
The one that says
“Strive toward perfection.
I will help you along the way."
