Some poems

 

34. To Betlehem Cave


Star is so fat as bread
To show the road for Wiseman
Angel talk to the pastors
Maria born the child.


Joseph is asking himself
What to do such a moment?
I am the son of David
I am not a nurse...


Everything happened well
According old prophecies
Pastors gave sweet food and milk
Wiseman shining gold and oil.


87. Most Holly Mother


You are so kindly looking on me
On this poor picture like in Vilno
And you may realize my heart
When happy or eyes in tears.


I am remembering first Mass
With my classmates so long ago
Remeber some sick girl fall down
People were very afraid.


Remember some lady angry was
Because Lithuanians don t like us
Polish have no right to be here
Go home she yelled…


Lithuanian Lady Ostra Brama
Lovely your face but very strong eyes
Give peace between the nations
Give health to everybody!


17. Please come Emmanuel


Vicar priest was very bussy
Catechist also helped him
Children were singing with all heart
Advent started in our church!


They took the lamps early morning
Small children walking in the morning
Maranatha – please come Emanuel
Such song we may hear everywhere.


Rose fall on the “cactoo”in Mexico
In Valence started cold mornings
Summer in Brasil and Australia
Siberia is freezing cold


36. Holly Night


Yes Holly ever but a shaming
How to sit down and talk about
When „Christmas Bread” will prepare
My mother or my dad.


Yes we will sing or the tape
Will play all songs and carols
I will be reading funny books
With lights from Christmas tree


Cold, even sometime there is no snow
Stars start to talking something hot
Will I go to the pastoral Mass
Or Holly Mass will take me to haeven?


150. Most Holly Heart


Evening, visiting chapel
In deep heart words of my mother
“My son I waited so long
I met you here welcome back”.


Jesus Heart and Heart of Mary
What a wonderful meetings
At first Nazareth, later Bethlehem
Finally Calvary Mountain!


I saw my mother in Korea
Even she suffered in Poland
I have hearing her in far Japan
She slowly was dying.


There is something in such legend
About small Marcellino
That you may talk with God in heaven
And slowly the wood start moving.


188. This bread all of us


This bread such different
From Europe and from Caucasus
Black or white hand made or bayed
Jewish bread or Arabic.


Which bread I have to use
That every man will take it
Which miracle we need
To convince unbelievers?


This bread from Lanciano please give us
These hands with bleeding muscles
Just one moment heart of young priest
In real presence not believed.

***


We don`t need exaltations
Theologians criticize us
Lord Jesus silent in Host
In Lanciano became human muscle.


109. Secrets of God


Lord You came to make all the Moses Law
But You also has given some comments:
New commandment I am giving you:
Take and eat from it my body”

„Love each other, chalice of new testament”
We really love each other very delicate way
Our churches full again...
Old scriptures,rules from the Temple.


182. You are my Lord


I wish imagine Your coming
I will be dressed enough nicely,
My room clean, heart prepared...
Or maybe the nets repairing?


Maybe the field will be buying
Or millions will win in lottery
Will I go with you Jesus
When you will appear unexpectedly?


132. My Jesus Christ


Just picturing on the paper
And you appear on the file
Sick, rheumatic and crying
You chest hardly broken.


Aureole I am designing to you
Simple line on the head
As exotic man you appeared
From nowhere country the king

Sister Faustina is telling me
To make woond bit bigger
The light from the heart tunnel
Is laying down on my paper


Even have disturb my eyes
But still opened I am looking
I am custommed to your suffers
Jesus from my file.


107. I am looking for you my Lord


I have knowledge, not easier,
You aren’t t the science
Even you know me so much
Allmighty Telepathy


I feel your touching
As Jacob I am fighting
I feel your taste
In broken peace of bread


You are so sweet, without sugar
Today we have Holly Thursday
Without knowing you
As Judas I give my kiss


My hand is without emotion
Few secunds before communion
Even I betray you ever
I am looking for you my Lord


29. Rose got flowers


In the garden of st Francis, nice flowers
Appeared just when he got temptation
He was feeling such flower make wounds
From the window he fall down.


In the Assisi garden no danger
In the world are temptations without sin,
You from Guadelupe, Lady from Lourdes
You attracted children showing them rose!


70. Lets sing sons and daughters


So many psalms of David
So many church songs exists
So many gifts in the world
But ours harps on the trees.


The prophet promised will have visions
Sons and daughters from Israel
But now the war is everywhere
Prophets have nothing to say.


102. God is love


From so high cross
As Moses metal-snake
The best doctor is looking on me
His bleeding body...


These wounds as wholes to heaven
Blood is coming as river
Bleeding but I don know
It is real blood or chocolate.


You are the volcano Jesus
You are the earthquake
Sometime you are walking
Silent as the wind in spring.


Love is coming silently
Without make fear or yelling
Too much humble for big ones,
Too much holly for sinners.
