Entry Eleven: Rewrite of "Praise the Tortilla"

I praise Irish Soda Bread in memory of my Grandpa
who so loved this treat, with its raisins and green colored sprinkles
whose face would light up when we took it to him after chemo

I praise Irish Soda Bread because it is so dang delicious
and thank God it is only sold once a year or I would be more voluptuous

I praise Irish Soda Bread because it's a symbol of my heritage
and the family I have been given for whatever reason
It reminds me where I came from and who got me there
