Clay

Smooth, rounded, perfect symmetry.

But if a fault

a)     reworked to perfection

b)     loved by the  maker all the same

A thing of beauty in the eye of the beholde

The Same Dirt

Genesis 3:23 So God expelled them from the garden of Eden and sent them to work the ground, the same dirt out of which they’d been made  (The Message)

The Same Dirt 1                                                                                 

Dirty, dusty, dry

Produces a miracle

A seed draws life

The Same Dirt 2

Till the soil

Exertion and toil

Yet it produces

Wonderful juices

Man & woman

Once just a seed

A gift of life

Why not pay heed

To the Giver

The Creator

Flows from the river

The Liberator
