Notes About The Poem
This poem was POTD on February 2, 2024. Thank you PoetrySoup.

Come To His Table

Humankind shouldn't despise its own,
let love be reaped after it's sown.
Many people's shelves sparse from
high inflation,
come to His table, all generations.

Who sits at the honored seat?
Radiant Christ, the harvest is complete.
His angels summoned the needy,
some of them shunned by the greedy.
They've brought their famished children,
no more hunger pangs of billions.

So much to thank Him for,
bread from golden wheat for the poor.
Juice from abundant grapes,
flowing down from a heavenly
airspace.
Rice cakes and vegetables, so
filling,
His earthly workers heady joy,
so willing,
to sow again neath a mellow sun,
for the grateful, every one.

It doesn't matter how humble
your station,
come to His table, all generations. ~

My heart rejoices in the fact that, everyone is invited to come to His table. God doesn't show favoritism. (Acts 10:34 NIV) Praying for all in need. Your thoughts are so beautiful and uplifting, Regina. Congratulations on Poem of the Day. Many wonderful blessings to you. Hugs, Brandy

Hello, with a fave from me. Your belief and trust in God is wonderfully unwavering, Regina.! This is so well crafted with great imagery And touching emotion. Reminds me of that verse, “Ask and you shall receive”. I know that people get impatient and they want what they want from God today. Well, He works on His own time table, not ours, right? Fantastic ending to the poem. Pangie xx
