Potter's Craft

A piece of clay thrown on the wheel
He uses imagination and a certain feel

The shape becomes a pot
Watching as an exact shape is sought

It will become a work of art
Seeing it complete tears at my heart

His talent is beyond compare
This type of work is not found just anywhere

When I see it I know it is for me
The image though yet unformed I can already see

The creation is what I am looking for
It is going to be mine for ever more
