When at the very end We leave this lump of clay, Going straightforward To the Celestial Office, We realise how much Important it always was To enjoy to the heart's content Our gift of poetry which Run in our blood and which Was bestowed on most of us By the Potter, Carpenter, But first and foremost, The Poet on High. . .

Since there is no potter, carpenter or poet on high in my vocabulary, I guess I'll have to mold this clay and get it fired before my tracks are obliterated by time.

Great allegory here.

I had to wait a long time to find the poet within me "bestowed by . . . the Poet on High." Still it was worth the wait. Yes, I agree with the sentiments of the poem. It will be nice to know that one has left something behind, not just a "lump of clay" to be recycled.
