I love to construct
there is joy in building
a bridge a home or a toy
I've always loved building
I've always designed things
I have since I was a small boy
My methods have altered
my materials changed
my motives have remained the same
I love to improve things
to see them get better
that has always been my true aim
Using concrete and steel
or some cotton or wood
I have always worked at my trade
pubs go-carts a sea-wall
curtains and picture frames
are some of the things I have made
Now with pencil and paper
I weave Thoughts together
to make fabric that Uncloaks my mind
some fits other People
some fits only Me
but then such is life as I find
