Faith, Passion & Love! Poem by Tom Zart

I never write a poem
That doesn't write itself.
I catch a buzz and come alive
Like a puppet off its shelf.

Hearing many voices
Whose words are never mine.
My pen becomes a painter's brush
Forming visions on a line.

I seem to be a better person
When it's time to sit down and write.
A higher power guides my hand
Sharing wisdom by day or night.

People born to create
Have no choice but to perform.
It's the rush of sharing their gift
That elevates them from the norm.

What would our world become
Without intervention from above?
Angry beings in a revolving cage
With no sense of passion or love.

Passion is any strong feeling or thought
Of faith, love, fear, anger and grief.
The emotional joy of sexual fulfillment
Sometimes the suffering of a saint or thief.

The cruelty of man nailing Christ to the cross
His treatment subsequent to the last supper.
Continuing conflict with endless world war
Make it seem humans are prone to suffer.

All must carry their own cross of life
While they struggle to survive each day.
Passion reveals how much we care
As we race toward our outcome and pray.
