   In answer to Poetry Challange, a humble attempt.

        "A Blacksmith With Porcelain Hands"

      You think you’ve got it bad, you say.
      Just change your view and look this way.

      There are some blessed and some are not,
      yet all make do with what they’ve got.

      He knows whatever can go wrong,
      Will come to him before too long.

      He tries to cope with life’s demands,
      a blacksmith cursed with porcelain hands.

I laud him for his grand ambition,
But he would lose in competition
With brawny blacksmiths I have met;
None with such hands hav I seen yet.
I surely hope he understands,
He can't shoe my horse, with porcelain hands.
