Every few months, Virginia Beach hosts an art show on the boardwalk. We went this weekend and picked up an ikebana vase of spalted maple, made by Mr. Tonnie Harrelson of Georgia.

This pretty thing reminds of the Greek word "poiema" which means "something that's made." The word can be translated "workmanship, masterpiece or poem." And not only about "things" Made, but People, in New Testament Greek.
Art shows filled with masterpieces and workmanship... but all the buyers themselves are also the workmanship, masterpieces and poems of God. Two galleries there, I guess.
Ephesians 2:10
"αυτου γαρ εσμεν ποιημα κτισθεντες"
(autoi gar esmen POIEMA ktisthentes)
"For we are His workmanship (or masterpieces) created ... for good works."
May I hold a flower too now?
