Pulling Up the Clay – v2

From the ground

from the earth, the dust

the soil, lifeless

pulling up the clay

adding water, the Potter’s touch

The wheel turning

guiding the clay,

pulling up the clay

to shape,  to form

there is life in the process

Changing with the turning

by the Potter’s loving hands

new lives forming

within our mothers’ wombs

guided by the Potter

Pulling up the clay

giving to His touch

to make our vessel

our hairs, our days numbered

by the Potter, in His book
