In the Details: Bread

This poem is dedicated to my lovely friend Jamie, who lives in Stratford, though we hardly see each other.

Bread

Bread is as
Simple to
Make
As a friendship.
Isn't it
Just those few
Common ingredients?

Salt
Flour
Water
Yeast 

Just as easy as

Attention
Patience
Time
Room to grow.
