Waiting For Supper Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Waiting For Supper

Rows of forgiveness
fallow in winter
Waiting for summer
their treasure installed

Leftover morsels
heated in darkness
Sating the hunger
of those who are called

Seeds from the past
replenish the future
Buried salvation
awaits in the ground

Fasting on yesterday
feasting tomorrow
Waiting for supper
— when dinner bells sound
