Pick up the tools of the Master Mason
Compass and set square and get to work
Drawing a circle, the start of creation
What are you creating? Could be an ark...
Divide your circle up into four neat squares
Right angles and quarters hence
Each one is a right angle joined by an ark
And let the knowledge commence
At the middle of each ark
As if you looked upon the sky
Mark it with a stone on Earth
For the sun is here, Most High
As the sun climbs pyramid walls
And reaches the middle of the sky
The noonday sun shining so bright
For all to see, Most High
The ark is a rainbow created in rain
The ark holds life inside
The ark of the covenant is right here
There are many arks of mind
Noah, he built one, and Moses too
Both arks, holding life as you see,
The grail is an ark, the manger, the cross
Gods covenant with you and me
So pick up the tools of the Master Mason
Compass and set square in hand
Now draw your circle, the start of creation
Remember and understand

Oh I'm impressed, especially with the suggestion that there are many arks in our minds. There's food for thought. And the last two lines are phenomenal!

Outstanding!!
Stunning and breathtaking work here. Very very mystical too. The depth of this piece is superb. The imagery outstanding - as are the words used. Yes, we could all be 'Arks'. We each are our own vessel moving through life.
Well done Shirl
