> My Husband the Blacksmith
>
> Out of the fire, the steel is red hot,
>
> Absolute precision, my man knows the lot.
>
> Each swing of his hammer makes a resounding blow,
>
> How he creates such beautiful work, I�ll never know.
>
> He bends the steel around the anvil�s horn,
>
> A leaf, a flower or lizard is born.
>
> The hiss and steam as the red steel is quenched,
>
> With long tongs he brings the work to the bench.
>
> Amidst piercing blue light he makes a weld,
>
> The forged iron pieces are perfectly held.
>
> Chipping  away the spatter and bits,
>
> With rainbow colours - a masterpiece sits.
>
> That�s why I love him so much,
>
> He really has the Master�s touch!
