Chinese Carpentry

I’ve got a skill just come up and see While I complete it so easily Just watch my hands as they do their stuff Your eyes won’t want to get enough I can do it with my eyes shut tight And you won’t beat me try as you might To make something out of nothing it’s plain to see With pencil and paper I designed it so freely There are no nails in what I build With my carpentry the wood will yield And with a couple of moves it unfolds Into a small stool with a look so bold. © Paul Warren Poetry
