SKILLFUL HANDS
Skillful Hands
I climbed through a broken window ,
Walked through every room ,
My life is being tested of what is wrong
And right !
I could see that the room I had taken
Was so full and darkness and stiff ,
It was a very bad way of life ,
Ofttimes he weave and sorrow,
And foolish pride can kill a good way in life,
When I looked in the next room to my right,
All I could see was a mattress with so much
stains on it ;
Rains of tears with lots of fears ,and loneliness
Was near ; and the loom of silent came my way
And I started to cry ,
Then I looked an seen a cracked cup laying on
The floor next to the window and no way for
Dust and rust to consume it up , it was glamour us
Then I started to think who was the one who had
Taken the drink from this cup ,
Will Jehovah unroll the canvas,and explain the reasons why
The dark threads are as needful in the skillful weaver's hand
As threads of gold and silver like the cup I see in the pattern
He has planned .
