"Up And Away", Alison Hill


Go Now My Friend

My friend
You are sent to be

Light-bearer
Bread-giver

To bear in your eyes the light that has broken
Through the darkness and pain of your journey
So that others may find their way to their destiny:

To carry in your hands the warm bread
You have kneaded in love
So that others may be fed to fullness

Go now, my friend

Light the candle
Consume the bread

And become....

Bread
Candle.

(Brother Thomas More Page)
