</>Walk along any crowded city street <br />See vacant stares on a sea of human faces <br />How stiff they walk on frozen feet, <br />And long forgotten social graces <br /> <br />Is passion within a human heart now gone, <br />As far as knowing eyes can see? <br />Is love and joy no longer paragon? <br />Oh Lord, why won’t they look at me? <br /> <br />Thy passion “Vincent” helps them take wing, <br />As paint on canvas did so long ago <br />Lovely are the words your paintings sing, <br />As if by magic, vivid flowers seem to grow <br /> <br />Soon, God’s Hands shall touch our hearts again, <br />The long forgotten buried and the walking dead <br />Made afresh…what was once arcane <br />The Will and Love of God shall again embed <br /> <br />Countless souls shall embark on upward flight, <br />None shall rest until they reach Eternal Light <br /> <br />(This revised poem was inspired by poet MKP) <br /> <br />ROTMS<br /><br />Ray Lucero<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/passion-takes-flight-2/
