My Passion

If but my passion 
I could capture in one hand 
The power I would wield.
Doubts and fear.
Crushed like granite 
under an anvils throw. 

If but my passion 
Could make this foot move.
I would surely climb the highest peak.
With sureness.
With faith. 
Gaze to the valleys in disbelief.

If but my passion.
Were of a rain showers passing.
Then the water that laid bare.
Shall employ the sun.
To grow the peace 
of a forest green.

If but my passion 
Were the rolling stone.
Then what simple effort.
This life could be.
Never a question 
to be misunderstood.
