My schooling of Catholic primary school, Catholic high school and Catholic college seem to have influenced this one. I can't hear about wooden furniture, the number 3 and stability without going to the Holy Trinity.

Listen to poem:
Don't pour scorn on this three legged table The Carpenter's spoken "it is more stable" Trust in the Word of the designer who knows Listen or your ignorance you will expose Just because many have different support Doesn't make their means something to exhort Remaining standing is one factor to observe However stability and resilience is what we deserve Everything in life exists on points of contact A weak link always has a detrimental impact Trust in the Holy Spirit, the Father and the Son The support for your journey has then begun

I certainly wasn’t expecting your final stanza Dilly, in fact I thought a Robin reliant might make a show, but yes I totally get the Catholicism inference, very nicely done, cheers David
