Warrior Poet Time - Satisfied

Here is my entry for the Warrior Poet Circle on the theme: Jesus Feeds the 5,000. Go to Jason's blog to read the other entries!

 

 

Bread-and-Fish

Satisfied

I taste the dust of the crowd
but I long for the taste of bread

Hunger directs my senses

I pushed through the crowd

I listen to hope

On a hillside,words of life
become bread for my soul

A basket, full of bread and fish
pass almost unnoticed

I am satisfied

and fragments are gathered

I have bread you don't know about... It's as true today as it was when Jesus said it. Amen, Jay. I feel the satisfaction in this! Thanks so much.

We all long for that satisfaction -- it's hole in our hearts that only the "bread" (and "wine") can fill. Good one, Jay.
