Poem: Made In The Image


Made In The Image

To wield a world, to work a deed,
To speak it soft or stern, at need,
Whether with much chanting, or cheering with delight,
Or thundering strength forth from the height,
This is to gods only given, and getting should be dear.
But the Lord of love, who allows no peer,
Has untwisted our tongues and tooled us new
To wield our words and whole worlds hew.
