INCREDIBLE EGG!!!

THE

INCREDIBLE

EDIBLE

CATHOLIC

EGG

Incredible,

Edible,

Catholic egg.

For you

I'd sell

An arm and a leg.

Delighting rich

And simple

Folk.

Hard-boiled

White

Around the yolk.

Sometimes scrambled.

Sometimes

Fried.

Often, next

To bacon's

Side.

Spittering,

Sputtering,

Splashing grease.

But into my life

You bring

Such peace.

For after

Matins' morning

Prayer

I go to the

Fridge

And you are there.

Always

Constant.

Circled friend.

No beginning

No big

End.

Reminding me,

When sick

Or well,

You're always

There

Inside the shell.

Ready to

Nourish.

Ready to feed.

Obeying God,

Your dairy

Creed.

And yes

You're Catholic,

Incredible egg.

For monks say

You're best...

With a St. Bernard’s keg!
