THE EUCHARIST

A day without the Eucharist,

Is dreary, dull and grey,

Hope loses all its promise,

Faith  lacks the will to pray.

He satisfies my hunger,

In the Eucharist,

Possessing Him I overflow,

With blissful happiness.

This holy, awesome Sacrament,

Empowers me with grace,

My soul holds in intimacy

My God in close embrace.

My soul a Sacred Monstrance,

My heart a sanctuary,

I am a living temple,

When God descends in me.

Myra D’Souza/24 May 2010
