 | This poem came out of thinking about the story of the rich young ruler in Mark 10, and Paul's words to the Roman church about the law of love, in Romans 13. |  | This post has been awarded 18 stars by 4 readers. |
Just like a cart without a bridled horse,
Or like a violin without a bow,
As empty as a shell without a yolk,
As dismal as a winter without snow,
As empty as a dried up river bed,
As cold as hands without a warming glove,
So is a law-abiding citizen
Who still is lacking sacrificial love.
