Joy of Clay Vessels

Pot created
Of muddy clay
Tossed and
Turned;
Every inch
Rounded and
Yielding to fingertips,

Kittled, then kindled
In fiery oven
Loess becomes
Natural

Jar, bowl or
Other vessel
Yearning for filling.

I got to talk with the people who had this plate - hadn't heard of it before.  It is a dance.  Kizomba.  Here's the link.

  1. I went to a sleepaway camp in my preteen years where I would watch a potter work. I didn't want to feel the clay myself but I so loved to watch the pot grow and take shape on the wheel. Visiting from A to Z Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
