But sometimes we get in a rut,
Things seem too ordinary,
We wonder if we really do,
Provide a sanctuary.
And just when we lose confidence,
In the merit of our work,
Comes an e-mail from a stranger,
Praising all our handiwork.
And one short line renews our faith,
Puts us back on the track,
For Master or Novice, it matters not,
We all need a pat on the back.
