Eric Boddie Poet Couplet

Passion

"Passion"

Passion is what fuels each and every Soul
Igniting a fire that needs to be told
Inspiration fulfilled, destiny defined
Dedication to a cause so utterly sublime
Romancing the heart that's been reduced to stone
Championing the struggles of those who've been wronged
Preparing our innocence, the reason so many teach
Practicing through discipline, perfection finally reached
