The Culinary Shepherd

In the heart of the kitchen, where flavors collide, You wield your vocation, with passion and pride. Anointed by Heaven, with gifts that you bring, To nourish both body and spirit, you sing. With skilled hands you blend, a mosaic so fine, A feast for the senses, where taste interlines. In the sizzle and simmer, your love comes alive, Each dish that you serve is where spirit may thrive. From humble beginnings to grand tables set, You weave joy in the meals, a bond we won't forget. With every fresh ingredient, your heart finds its way, Transforming mere food into love on a plate. You craft every morsel with care and delight, A banquet of blessings that ignites the night. With laughter and kindness, you gather them near, For the hungry, the weary, you've made your path clear. But beyond the fine dishes, there's something more true, A calling that whispers, "Keep feeding them, too." For with each spoonful seasoned by grace, You fulfill a divine and sacred embrace. So rise up, dear chef, with your heart full of fire, In each heart you nourish, let faith and love inspire. For you are a vessel, in kitchens divine, Anointed to serve, where the body and spirit entwine. May your table be ample, your spirit alight, As you feed hungry souls in the soft morning light. Continue to craft your legacy bold, In the kitchen of Heaven, your story is told.
