Mended

Like a broken vessel in the blacksmith's shop 
I lay there broken and getting rusted.
I was of no use, no one stopped by 
to pick me up and mend me .
Then one day when I lost all hope ,
there came a man who bought .
He did not comment on my looks ,
but lovingly He held me .
He cleaned me ,He mended me ,
He loved me though I was of no use .
He shaped me and reformed when i was deformed .
Now I stand shiny and clean ,without any blemish or scar 
because my owner has mended me and given me a happy heart.

Sometimes we write letters to ourselves. And it is not known if we really are sending a message to others. To me this speaks of the Joy you were given or the joy you found. Yet it is a testimony.
