VERSE: The Carver’s Lesson
The Carver’s Lesson speaks to those who create not with their hands alone, but with their hearts and convictions woven into every detail. The speaker urges that skill, while essential, is not the highest virtue of art. What truly matters is the message that breathes quietly through each carved form—a whisper of peace, kindness, or truth hidden in wood or stone. A carved rose should carry more than beauty; it should soften a heart or inspire a thought. This lesson isn’t just for sculptors—it’s for…-
