"Dining with
Divinity"
by
Doug Donnan
Jesus blessed both
bread and wine,
then the twelve
commenced to dine.
It wasn't so much
but as things went,
the precious gifts
were Heaven sent.
"This is my
body and blood," said he,
"when you
take them be part of me."
They ate the bread
and quaft the wine,
it was indeed the
last supper so divine.
___ Amen ___

"The
Cornucopia"
by
Doug Donnan
The entire fruits
of your labor spill out before you,
a true golden horn
of plenty lies there at your feet.
You appraise the
collection with ardent adulation,
and very soon
jubilate in its abundance so replete.
However, with keen
scrutiny you espy bruises and,
in reality the
entire cornucopia is laced with deceit.
Perhaps, you are
just a fool playing a fool's game,
the lush and
tender morsels are just not so sweet.
