Imagining, picturing, seeing
the hands of the potter
sitting at the wheel
loving the clay
what delicate mastery
his artistry to reveal
the eyes of the potter
if we could only but see
the world, the creation
through His eyes
no more mystery
the mind of the potter
symmetry, balance
perfect creation
all for a purpose
all part of his plan
the love of the potter
touching our liquid clay
holding us, shaping us
picking up the broken pieces
lovingly making us worthy
by his loving hands
