"You still the hunger of those you cherish..."
Psalm 17:14 b
There was
no food or drink
that would satisfy
the hunger in my soul
I dined on
the delicacies
and drank
to my heart's content
Yet the insatiable pangs
persisted and pleaded
for more
Never content
in worldly feasts and spirits
Invited to Your table
of imperishable life blood
I sat and ate
among thieves and paupers
and knew I'd found my place
sated and full
We sat on level ground
and spoke without decoration
You offered me more
yet so little had filled
the emptiness within
I prayed
to come back
daily
and share
in your
feast of life
Learning the way
to Your table
of grace
Finding my place
amongst my new family
I know
I am
cherished
without hunger
and
loved
