Forever Wine and Bread

As married Christians aging,
Partook crusty "forever" bread,
Sonlight sparkled through the window,
Jesus spoke "Remember Me" he said.

Sweet taste of summer blackberries,
Fragrant fresh as "forever" wine,
Drank with "reverent remembering"
Heartstruck with Son's sparkling shine.

We dined enriched of spirit,
Sure of what we heard,
Then angels came to visit us...
The world said "That's absurd".
