“CAST YOUR BREAD UPON THE WATER”

 

Shared with us in a book offered in friendship from a gifted writer, Ken Coons. Thank you, brother.  --Hatonn

 

Cast your bread upon the water

And it shall return to you,

Twenty fold, thirty fold, or just a crumb or two.

For a man must lie in the bed he makes,

And reap the seed he sows,

If he can't learn to give and take

Each day his bitterness grows.

 

Cast your bread upon the water

Whether you be rich or poor,

If a man is a man, he never will keep score

Of the times that he has been mocked or shamed

For wealth or poverty,

Or others' sins when he was blamed,

He'll still not act spitefully.

 

Cast your bread upon the water

Heart and soul of one accord,

When you give, never give just to get a reward.

Be a friend of him who will need a friend

Regardless of his skin,

For all our hopes and wishes blend,

 

And every man is your kin.
