Hands of Molding
Necessity is the refining of this life so crude
to stand up to the task of facing a world so rude
connecting you to all the needed wires
will be carefully executed and I won’t tire
shielding and protection, you’re kept under
your challenges at this stage, allow me to ponder
shaping and reshaping for a sound mind to be in this boy
growing up expectedly to give so much joy
innocence and wisdom carefully acquired by this girl
tomorrow becomes a woman and is seen as a pearl
life is a friend but sometimes this link proves sloppy
you will learn all its tricks as you train under my canopy
one day, you’re lucky and blessed with cash
another day, for the same attempt, you’re bruised with lash
immunity to the pain of its venom
is my desire, so that you become a phenom
it is never over, continuous is this class
lessons are always learnt to keep intact the glass
when character is acquired under a good architecture
personality is expertly built into a solid structure.
