a foretaste of the loaves = v2

This woman’s faith
gathering the crumbs
below the table,
healing in her belief,
her daughter released
from her nagging affliction…
 
In His answer, blessing,
a foretaste of the loaves
of the banquet to come
the crumbs for the dogs
now the full meal, the bounty,
the wedding feast of the Lord
