MASTER ARTIST
What an artist uses to shape and smooth his sculpture
Is what God will use to mold and carve our character
The artist takes his time to design or pattern perfectly
So in the end a splendid replica we see
Man can never be his shining best unless
His Master's hands guide him to complete success
And since our

If I Knew How To Carve a Scrimshaw
If I knew how to carve a scrimshaw
I would carve the world’s prettiest scene
I would carve out a catfish jumping out of a lake
After I carved a frog sitting on a lily pad
I would carve one on a dinosaur’s bone
And the other on a whale’s tooth
If he would let me

Daymare
I sat on the vine way up high
What a beautiful day I sigh
Soon came Farmer’s wife
With a carving knife
Now I’m a spicy pumpkin pie

Carver's Attack
There once was a pumpkin named Jack
Who left home and never looked back
He faced a great harm
Once leaving the farm
Now fights off the Carver’s attack

Love Afar
They sat one across from the other
Neither could move closer nor further
She winked at Jack
And he winked back
Their unrequited love asunder

And There I Was
I sat serenely on the vine
The sun on my rind sublime
Came the farmer’s wife
with a carving knife
I’ll nevermore feel the sun shine

An Innocent Childhood Memory
When any fruit, I see,
I reminisce mom chop it, and I as a child,
Carved in glee.
Project at school,
With New themes to choose, I did wield,
My tool.
Reward,
For skill I yield,
Scored.
When any fruit, I see,
With new themes to choose, I did wield,
Scored.

With chisel and mallet carve

Time I Carve For Myself
I hear the alarm and I think what? Not already! I have been up and down all night.
My usual pattern, I am used to it in many ways, because nighttime is my quiet, creative, thinking time.
I started fully enjoying the middle of the night when my children were small,
because it was the only time I

To Carve
i could use
some wood
right now to
whittle and
carve
a rugged, slow
carve
one i know well
one you taught me
a couple springs ago
we were carving away
at lust
at seduction
which led
to love
we both thought
of stopping
and stared at the
mess we made
of each other
you looked bad
said i carved into
something no one
else ever
found
but i looked

To Carve a Temple
The ground is hard, the day is long;
The earth unyielding, the spade no prong:
The laborer sweats,
His brow heaves a sigh;
The Heavens shimmer,
Dressed in parched skies.
Dreams are raw, open blisters;
His back near breaks as he twists her.

Carve Us Deeper In the Stone
A graveyard stands upon the hill;
its tombstones smoothed beneath the tide
of nature's forces beating hard;
I pass and hear the buried cry.
"Reverse the trend, relentless grown,
that would erase our names for aye;
for who grants thought to silent stones
and corpses claimed in nameless graves?
We yet would speak, if you inquire,
if you draw near with ear and heart

The Future Yours To Carve
The darkness has passed and the morning has come
The birds sing hello to the day
But you lay there'til you and the pain become one
Willing all but your sorrow away
.
What happened the girl full of wonder and awe
Who dared steal your thunder away
Who took all the dreams and the visions you saw
And coloured them empty and

Ease, Don'T Carve Me Into Stone
Shortening my breath everyday
Ease, don't carve me into stone
I'm not quiet ready
These insecurities in me,
I swear there killing me
So please don't judge me
Just give me a minute
Time to reflect
On the things I've done
All I regret
Please don't set me into this mould yet
I see this eternity as a catastrophe
A never ending cycle of hurt
Constantly seeking
