Communion Poem by Sophia White

The world, it’s gold and fortune,
The hopes and dreams and years,
All the castles and fairy tales,
The stories and adventures and cheers,
The hands to hold in adversity,
The security to rest my head,
The promises and the ambitions,
For a little piece of bread.

My life, it’s comfort and wishes,
The smiles and warmth sublime,
All the pleasures and ‘ever afters’,
The summers and winters and time,
The people to cherish in memory,
The delectable cuisine to dine,
The security and the solidity,
For a little cup of wine.
