• Bread - So you never go hungry.
• Wine - So your life is always sweet.
• Salt - So there is always spice in your life.
• And a Candle - So you always have light
Is there more to this poem? I thought rice was in there & a couple of other things.
Thanks

A Traditional Housewarming
Bread - So you never go hungry.
Wine - So your life is always sweet.
Salt - So there is always spice in your life.
And a Candle - So you always have light.
Bless this house as we come and go
Bless this house as the children grow
Bless our families when they gather in
Bless this house with love and friends.
May the roof above us never fall in.
And may the friends gathered below it never fall out.
Walls for the wind, a roof for the rain,
and drinks beside the fire.
Laughter to cheer you and those you love near you,
and all that your heart may desire!
Home is where friendships are formed and families are grown;
where joy is shared and true love is known;
where memories are made and seeds of life are sown.
This is the place that people call HOME.

Rice: that there may always be food in your home
Bread: that there may always be friends and family to share with
Salt: that there always be a little spice in your lives
Sugar: that sweetness touch even our worst of days
Candles: that you may always find your way back home
Wine: that there may always be reason to celebrate.

Nope... that's the way I've heard it.
Four items - Bread, Wine, Salt and a Candle.
