They say only in infinity
do two parallels meet,
but in this house at 6 pm
every weeknight when we eat
the finite get a touch of love
as food is more than just prepared,
when you cook it with the thought of us
it’s more than taste that shows you care.
Through acts alone you give us life
beyond what’s seen upon the surface,
despite the cause of any strife
you give us all a purpose.
Forever to you we owe a debt
to be paid in love and life beget.
