The Potter's Pot
THE POTTER'S POT
The Potter's pot
Walks down the valley
In the woods
Of the forest of life.
Protected by its shed
On the path to the
riverside.
The labyrinth forest,
Broken pot?
Lost in the forest?
The stones of the forest
And the footstep of
others
Marked against the
walls of the path.
Weighed and found
weightless,
Weighed and found
wanting
Bt the riverside.
Back against the hills,
Weary in the forest and
thirsty
On the path to the
Potter.
No water to quench
thirst.
The wayfarer.
Now the Potter
Weighs the pot
And found it worthless.
He repairs the broken
And gives map to the
lost.
Pay heed, his next
command
And fill your pot to
overflow.
The Potter's pot.
