Heart, Soul and Mind
What good is a heart
With no chamber of love,
Or heaven, in fact,
Without God above.
How worthy is a soul
That has not in it
The spark that ignites
A warm, kindly spirit.
How sound is a mind
That reasons not well,
Confined in a vacuum
Within its own shell.
All three, undoubtedly --
Heart, soul and mind --
Can get us ahead,
Or leave us behind.bbb
