Creativity

The carpenter knows his wood
Every nail and every mark.
He'd know each grain and knothole
If he felt it in the dark.

The sculptor knows his figure
Every curve and every bump.
He sees what no one else could see
Emerging from the lump.

The artist knows his painting
Every stroke and every line,
The sweet perfume of color
And the rich bouquet of wine.

The Maker knows His creature
Every flaw and every sin,
But reaches forth to love us
To create us once again.
