In This Breaking of Time's Bread...





Take, eat, pleads the One
Who breaks yon sky in two
Dawn is holy bread
That I hold out to you

Take, eat and be filled
Not by want’s hungry gall
But by perfect love
That I offer to all

Take, eat ere night falls
And closes the fist
That holds out the bread
Of Time’s morsel of mist

 Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. 
What is your life? 
You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.
James 4:14
