Listen to poem:

Our Daily Bread

Our Daily Bread
David J Walker


Give us this Day
	Our daily bread

As the garden grows in rows of 
Mimicked articulation 

	I stand
	Shovel in hand 

The morning's supplication 
Interrupted by the rising sun

The morning song sung 
        by the 

Turtle dove flawlessly 
Accomplished perfection

Give us this day
	By the rising Son

The twilight absorbed 
In the eastern sky

The morning will fly 
       And the day 
       will be done

as I stand guard 
	in the garden
