Potters Wheel

Wheels of fire burn at the potters hands and feet.
Sweet passion of mortared clay;
fashioned on a potters wheel to be carried away.
Lamps holden in wheels created as before you see.
Sweet passion of mortared clay;
fashioned on a potters wheel to be carried away.
Between  the two a lamp moved promising today.
Sweet passion of mortared clay;
fashioned on a potters wheel to be carried away.
The potters eyes who hold mine created me for you.
Sweet passion of mortared clay;
fashioned on a potters wheel to be carried away.

Christy, this recalled to mind a favorite verse of mine in Isaiah 64:8 "Now, O Lord, you are the Father; we are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand." Nice to see other Christians writing poetry. Blessings ~ John
