I
Life constantly moulds clay,
Of soft malleable moments,
On the potter wheel of Time,
With ease of a child's play.
With expert skilled hands,
Carves intricate beautiful patterns,
Of feelings, desires and emotions,
On many pots of varying shapes.
Then baked in the kiln of Time,
Coloured with grey-black experiences,
Finished and varnished with Hope,
They store single bits of life.
II
Forgotten they lay long,
Forgotten in the attic of Mind,
Only there they belong,
Till heart looks behind,
Or when incessant drumming of rain,
Play the symphony of nature
And drug soul into a trance,
Easing all its strain,
Or in some lonely hour,
When tranquility resides face,
These imperfect pieces of art,
Re-enact Life's different acts.

thanks for your comment .........I am glad that you liked the poem.
Life is full of imperfections and that is the charm of living..................what keeps us moving is our urge to experience perfect moments , build perfect relations , create a perfect world.........But had every thing being perfect I bet it would have been really boring.
Thanks and keep comming...

Everything on earth is a piece of art, however imperfect it may be. That's a good message. You've employed many interesting and captivating images from nature and pottery to convey the message powerfully.
