CELTIC  PRAYER 

Poem for Today - Tuesday - November 17, 2014

BREAD

Be gentle when you touch bread.

Let it not lie, uncared for,

Unwanted.

So often bread is taken for granted.

There is such beauty in bread—

Beauty of surf and soil,

Beauty of patient toil.

Wind and rain have caressed it,

Christ often blessed it.

Be gentle when you touch bread.

Celtic Prayer from  

The Open Gate
