Shake it Back:


And how did the elephant get its trunk?
An alligator got hold of its nose and pulled
And pulled
And pulled
Sometimes I feel like I’m being
Pulled and pulled and pulled.
Family life – this way
Mum – that way
Sister – this way
Church – that way
Work – this way
Friends – the other way
Pulled and pulled and pulled
My nose is ok so far
But it’s my Spirit that’s out of shape
So much so that I can’t remember what shape it should be.
The Great Potter
The Great Creator
She fashioned my Spirit – Help me shake it back into shape.
