Elegy
If sculpting is your art, O craftsman, Shape my face, my body, and my soul with your hand.
If sculpting is your art, O craftsman, Shape my face, my body, and my soul with your hand. Turn water into glass for me, if you can, Or cleanse this mirror of its rust and sand. To weave my veil, mix the hues of a rainbow, And carve colours from flowers and butterflies aglow. You claim your hands hold many crowned heads, Then shape a melody from wood, let music be spread. On a blank page, you’ve drawn trees and bloom, If you write poetry, give it taste and room. As you’ve chiselled the sun with precision and care, Take your tools and create brilliance to share. I will build a world vast and free, Not confined by a grave, a cage, or misery. It’s my craft to make sweetness and honey abound, But you, craft the sting, and let its pain resound. You, a master of mud’s enchantments divine, Why stunned by the beauty of a woman so fine?
