That Blue Log



When I set my eyes upon that blue log of wood that day,
I was so surprised that I had no clue or any words to say…

How did the Lord know exactly what was on my mind?
How did He always make sure that what I want I get to find?

That log of wood was perfect for the statue of my dreams!
As I carried it, I thought, “It’s a Divine conspiracy it seems!” 

My workshop & tools welcomed that blue log with a smile,
I got carving & soon I had created the Lord’s statue in style!
