Making A Meal Of It

All our food has got a meaning, A purpose on the plate And deserving of the cleaning So that it's then first rate... Prepared by experts, it can be The highlight of our day, Depending on the recipe, If we choose to obey... Consider how the table's laid With lighting here and there, No wonder that our prayers are made Based on this extra care... So families and sweethearts, too, Can dine in perfect peace, As if the perfect thing to do That sets the mind at ease... The human brain can't feed itself With wisdom all day long, It needs some help to maintain health So that the body's strong... And music, too, can play its part To soothe the savage beast, To stimulate or calm the heart, To make a meal a feast... No wonder, when we search about, Discernment is the key, To help us pick our favourites out From restaurants we see... And if well served, we go again, Content they'll get it right, Reminding us of that time when We shared a special night... Yes, food is precious, as we know, From savoury to sweet, It helps to keep us on the go, It makes our lives complete... But spare a prayer for hungry ones, Because they need food, too... God's charities still need your funds... That's food for thought for you... Denis Martindale, copyright, February 2012.
