My Daily Bread
You are my glass
of vintage wine
and your sweetness
quenches my thirst
You are my sustenance
the daily bread that
feeds my heart, mind,
and soul
You are my illumination
radiant and burning bright,
the enlightenment
that attracts me
No more can be said
now and forever
you are my sweetness,
my light, my daily bread
