Our Daily Bread
by Grace Noll Crowell
An ancient rite, as old as life is old:
A woman baking bread above a flame.
Its value is far greater than pure gold,
It is ageless,timeless, and the simple name
Of bread is wholesome as the summer sun
That has lit and warmed the fields that men might eat:
It is as clean as are the winds that run
Their light-foot way across the waving wheat.
A loaf is only half a loaf unless
We share it, and unless we say
Our grace above it, asking God to bless
The bread that He has given day by day.
O women, handle flour as you should!
It is a thing God-given, priceless, good.
(Betty Crocker Picture Cookbook 1950)
