One Table

All are called to the one table
the table of remembrance
Many colors, many voices,
some hungry, some in pain,
all around one table, this day
breaking the bread, sharing
the fruit of the vine, poured out
The bread, the body,
the wine, His blood
remembered in common
each of us sharing this sacred meal
All around one table
