The Much Needed Substance

A song is without no lyrics

and no poems has no melody;

And even in the beginning

The Good Book doesn't mentioned a tune

When God uttered His phrase truthfully;

But a Great Soul in the past,

By his Divine Mercy I was told,

that the Supreme never speak

a word without rhythm, 
without rhyme,

without a melody.

It’s not the meaning, it’s the rhyme;

it’s not the thought, but how it was sang;

And whether it was the lyrics

or simply how it sounds;

is the important part of a piece,

simply for the argument's sake,

I shall not concede my stand;

A melody is only a melody

without its subtle grace.

The simple perceives the obvious

The wise sees the unseen,

All for the purpose of The One

who is always present,

but can’t easily be seen;

Not one of them is better

not one of them is least;

Both are parts of a whole,

both are important parcels 

in the game of pieces;

as a father dearly loves a child,

and all are children of His.

I say the tune is given and inherent

but words are intricately searched;

Before it truly rang and bangs,

together with the thoughts and rhymes

It takes sacrifices to make;

For no reason a man creates a tune

that makes the whole world dance;

And for no valid reason a forgotten song

was played that made the whole world sang;

But for what reason a song will last for long

without the much needed substance

to withstand the test of time?
