Spiritual Food:
To 'Abdu'l-Baha

"He is God! Thou seest us, O my God, gathered around this table, praising Thy bounty, with our gaze set upon Thy Kingdom. O Lord! Send down upon us Thy heavenly food and confer upon us Thy blessing. Thou art verily the Bestower, the Merciful, the Compassionate."
‘Abdu’l-Bahá12

Prayer by prayer
my soul connects with my Lord
giving thanks
for both material
and spiritual food.

Word by word
I read the the sacred scriptures
sating my souls hunger
and quenching its thirst.

Breath by breath
I meditate
letting my soul to digest
the word of God.
