Bread & Basin

Bread and Basin,
Towel and Table
	ever for His followers
	entwined;

Water poured on feet, and blood on wood,
	speak silently this single truth-
	Hold in my healing heart
	the frightened feet,
	the hungering hopes
	of those who sup with me.

I'll kneel in speechless wonder
	before my pilgrim other:

I'll sit and wipe the tears
	with a towel of listening,
	before we merrily break out
	of isolation.

Bread and Basin,
	Cloth and Cup
	will be our Eucharist.
Bread & Basin
