BREADS OF HEAVEN

For Don and Jeff, My Friends in California









I must go, I have to go
To the shrine of San Francisco....
In the chapel of M&S.
I must buy the breads so blest
And afterwards confess.

When I approach the Bakery,
I become a sinner.
Coveting all the breads....
How to choose for dinner?

Hazelnut and Figgy?
I could be a little piggy.
Walnut Bread – with soup?
Ooh, I give a little “Whoop!”
Cranberry and Pecan Baton?
Oh, Lord, that whacks the fat on....

San Francisco Sourdough
Is heaven in a bread.
Nutritious, delicious,
And this sinner must be fed.

So I must repent, I must do penance,
I must suffer pain.
I must be shriven, and forgiven,
Then I may eat them all... again…!!
