until awakened by
One who steps in
through vision
and dreams
Dream’s Master
He calls her
unto Himself
Neither slave nor
a strumpet is she
Then gently she’s set
upon potter’s wheel
Again, with a sigh
must He mold, sift
and shape
Tools now by His side
unseen by the common
He begins, steadfast in
mercy and grace
Undaunting this task
Quest now set in love
skilled Master’s stripe
each stroke with it
brings true understanding
Many a time brought
to nothing then rebuilt
Cast in furnace affliction
Veracity proving her
true
Tenacious potter continues
Love never ending ’til
perfection in beauty
she stands
Called to be
long before even
that of her birth
for such a time
as this
My daughter, arise
Seat yourself
in this kingdom
wherein lay secrets
the annals of man
His love measures
priceless her worth
A treasure, that far
above rubies and gold
Drawn there a plumbline
in an unseeing world
Where standards are higher
therein, all eternity waits
As destiny calls
a diadem glitters bright
On shores of humbled compassion
with unyielding grace acknowledged
no longer Princess but a Queen
