POETRY
“Each morn through dazzled window
Anew, the sun above
In bursting, blazing splendor
Surprise me with your love.
“Descending over chaos
An eagle, then a dove
Forth-bringing, powering, filling
Surprise me with your love.
For sunburst, friendship, mercy
In life’s design now wove–
Fresh virgin gifts forever new–
Surprise me with your love.
When my life is done
I’ll wend my way above
Sin-scarred and empty-handed, then
Surprise me with your love.”
–Father James Geoghegan, OCD
“Only for today, I will be happy in the certainty that I was created to be happy, not only in the other world but also in this one.”
–The Decalogue, Pope John XXIII
