Quake and Storm... OF BEING


Quake and Storm...

OF BEING

what be this passion, this driving force
this calling to create, to design, to express

what be this passion, this driving force
this calling to awaken, to perceive, to understand
to reveal, to share, to resolve
this calling to validate, to define
to live purpose, to be free, to know love
what be this passion, this driving force
to live ideas, disciplines, and mastery
this the sculptor
form, structure, newly conceived
this the artist
metaphor, symbol of creation's command
this the poet
in lamentation, in faith, in joy expressed
this the dancer, the actor, the performer
the music, the word, the song, the drama
this the quake and storm
this each heart in soul's light
what be this passion, this driving force
but the grace and power OF BEING.
