“Home-Baked Bread,” by Sally Croft

September 16, 2010

A poem that breathes sweetness beside the open window and lies like honey on the floor.

Croft’s poem is among the poems in the “Images” chapter of The Compact Bedford Introduction to Literature, (8th ed.) edited by Michael Meyer.

    This makes me smile!
    Bread is sensuous!

    And I think of Jesus. “I am the bread of life… “
    Ever more than a “cunning triumph”!
