Tailor


Spread out over the table 

Material gleams in the light

Carefully,

The Tailor measures 

Twice 

Then cuts along the lines

Precise in each motion

Each piece loving placed,
Aligned

In the correct position 

The Tailor sighs, 

smoothing out the wrinkles

Delicately the work of union begins

Painstaking in nature

Each step essential,

None paramount to another

Slowly the garment takes shape,
Becoming what it was meant to be

Through hard work

And effort

Beautiful in prescence 

Unique 

Adored for the glory within

The tailor works continually
striving to create beauty

Never satisfied enough to 

Finish 

Knowing that life’s purpose
Is to move forward,

Leaving the world 

Divine 

With the gifts we share
