Hi

A novel and unique way to look at yourself through a clay vessel.

I like this:
Yes, I can't help the way I'm shaped,
I'm still unique, the way I'm draped;
I'm moulded by the potter's hand-

I am glad I stopped by.
Marion.

Your choice of photo goes hand in hand with your poetry, a good choice.
I like you flow of words and the way that you rhymed your sentences, it
reads out loud very well. I've always believed that we are uniquely made
by God and we all have gifts to share with the world.

Very nice rhythm with this poem, and a hard one to try to present, though you made it seem easy with how you have it, with delightful rhyme, and the perfect photo displayed along with an appropriate quote from the Bible referring to such a container.

Best Wishes for your entry...Caressa_08

Very well written, this poem. Indeed, some things which are created are not perfect.
People or things. But they are unique. I love the comparison of the clay vessel
and the human being. Created by creator's hand. It is what it is and we are what we are... Thanks for sharing, a pleasure to read. Fia

If this doesn't put any thoughts of measuring up to rest nothing will. Loved the simple sense this was filled with. God made me, and who am I to point out flaws. I used to hate my body growing up. One day I was complaining and my mom said, "Tell God he did a bad job making you. Because I think he did his finest work on you. But then that's just my opinion. "
After a few days I looked at my reflection and decided that if I'm good enough for God then I'm okay.
Loved this. Your rhyming and effortless rhythm were great. Thanks for posting. Gretchen

Thanks Gretchen, you're mum was right, if God loves as we are, then so should we, thanks for the great review.

Ah, I think I recognize the author of this sweetly flowing little piece.

I wonder if the organiser of this contest intended this interpretation, all along. You certainly make a potent case for it. And of course apart from praising God, your poem has another theme - it doesn't matter what shape we are as vessels, we all have the same value.

Good luck.

Steve
