Communion

I cross my hands,
In a linked eternity.
My wrists faced upwards,
Towards sky's infinity.
My right palm over my left
The silent contact is made.
As I bow my head in prayer
My deadly sins fade.
The heavenly bread is put
On my open palm.
I see its gentle nature
Like a quiet psalm.
The wine is next placed
On my callous left hand.
The blood of Jesus Christ
Who was earthbound send.
By taking this great bond,
It retells a sad story.
In which an innocent lamb
Was scarified for me.

This is so cool, Decardes! It really describes what Holy Communion is. I liked it! And by the way, welcome to Passions!

I'm grabbing my hat and coat
I'm leaving the cat a note
Quick call me a ferry boat-getting out of town!
