Life Is Like a Loaf of Bread

These are the building blocks of bread Flour, salt, yeast, and water warm You must wait for the dough to rise You knead, then mold to proper form. It bakes and comes from the oven In many colors, shapes, and sizes Pride of knowing that you made it It is a process that gratifies. As life progresses thru the years As you grow from child to adult You will encounter many paths As you build the final result. For life is like a loaf of bread In many colors, shapes, and sizes You build it as your soul expands A process full of compromises.
