You
instructed us to pray
“Give
us, this day, our Daily Bread”
Heavenly
Manna
My
allowance of Daily Bread appears but a morsel
Compared to the increase of the loaves of
another
My Daily
Bread smells stale, putrid
In
light of another’s fragrant loaf
My Daily
Bread presents hard and crumbly
Aside
the lightly dense, velvety loaf of another
Heavenly
Father
You
have supplied my Daily Bread
You
have determined its
Portion
Fragrance
Texture
You
have set me at your table
You
have prepared a feast for me
You
have told me to taste and see…
And
so I will give thanks to you
With
gratitude
For my portion of
Daily
Bread
