Casting Bread Upon The Water

~ Casting Bread Upon The Water ~

Some keep a lovely garden in the country

isolated where few will ever get a view

some gardens beam great beauty

at cross roads and are admired

Some folks keep a hobby quiet

getting sharp at crosswords 

or fixing puzzles privately

mainly for an inner joy

Some writers seek to publish

to be remembered, known

to interact with readers

to share their world

Others write to scratch some itch

inside themselves - catch an 

insight or idea, or snatch a

verbal photo of their day

We find our voice and sing

in so many ways - some

with a quiet hum, some

in bursting gifted song

Each vignette, weak or strong

adds to the stream of words

we cast our crumbs upon.

In blessing one another

we too are blessed
