writing us onto his flesh

the assurance of presence
of God here with us
creator, potter, Lord of all this
in the ancient words of the psalmist
written so long ago
our lives, our names
our very essence
writing us onto his flesh
the hands of the potter
marking us for his purpose
his own hands upon us
