If it is not a craft you are going to master, <br />Much unlike a hobby done for sport! <br />Or something like a doodle done? <br />You ought not make attempts, <br />To discuss your relationship with it! <br />Since it is not embraced in your heart at all! <br />It is something you believe attracts attention. <br />Not the skill performed and nourishing the soul. <br />An ego gets tired and old with time. <br />However... <br />A craft that has been mastered, <br />Is in constant practice. <br />It rehearses when one should sleep. <br />And teases itself to keep... <br />The signature of God upon it! <br />Proud it speaks with such uniqueness. <br />Free of pretensions to pass, <br />Whenever asked of origin. <br />It simply is as it wishes to be exposed. <br />And revealed the way it is and admired!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
