"Even if all had gone ..."
Her old, tired eyes
Are look at all in the Paradise Lounge.
Everyone nod, gives her way,
The priority on the road to heaven honour
Although she says that will wait
That used to, because for all the years
In so many turns her life has ceased,
That this one is for her ...
He sits on a chair, simply,
Among the armchairs
And closing eyes leaning head on hands.
Her grey hair gathered in a mesh
Reveal a wrinkled brow ...
He sleeps ...
Even if all had gone ...

"The revelation ..."
I'm standing on the precipice
I look away
The wind blows in my face
And sun
Shines behind the head
Like a halo
Down there
I see my shadow
Huge like
Statue of Liberty
Looking at him
I spread my arms like
Christ
I suffer like
Christ
Someone in the bottom
Looking at me
Is calling His name

"Guardian of the last trip ..."
Knock
Knock
Knock
Who is it?
Maybe the mailman
With the desired annuity
Or bailiff
To which
There is no
How to pay
Or maybe
Grandchildren
Tiny Childs
Which so long
Doesn’t seen
Her old
Tired eyes
With trembling hands
She quickly door opening
No
It came an Angel
Guardian for the last journey ...

"JESUS"
He said:
Sail!
I sailed,
And I had
The full fishing nets.
He said:
Come with me!
And I went.
I listened to His
Great Words,
In which
He cheered hearts.
I've seen
How deaf people’s
Hearing restored
And blinds
Just opened eyes.
But when they asked:
Do you know Him?!
Thrice
I was ousted

"Eli, Eli lama sabachthani?"
One of the Twelve
Judas
For a thirty pieces of silver
Was sold
Kissing Him on hand
Eli, Eli lama sabachthani ...
They cried:
You are deserves death
For blasphemy!
They spat Him in the face,
They would like that He prophesied them.
He was silent
Eli, Eli lama sabachthani ...
Hen crowed
Peter cried
Because he were drove
Judas chosen death
Field of Blood they bought
Eli, Eli lama sabachthani ...
Crucified
With Him robbers two
Laughed
And fate threw His clothes
He died
To rise from the dead
Eli, Eli lama sabachthani ...

"Prayer for the stranger"
For this in line
To a piece of bread,
With fully bags
Reaching to the ground.
Standing on the tram,
Because the place are occupied.
Due to work
For a penny’s to life.
Squeezed in a crowd
Which is turning around
On countless streets
Labyrinth’s.
Woven by the kitchen
Top
And apron.
Wanting in her live
To have something more.
But most of all I pray
My Lord,
For this with tiny Child
In arms,
Which was rejected by all on earth,
Frozen
In light of You’re crown
He want to be hide

"Father"
I find HIM everywhere
In the beaming lamp
Hanging above the desk
In a broken chair
In crumpled tablecloth
In scattered leaves
In sheared trees
In blooming poppies
And much busy ant
In other people’s
Eyes
Wearing Him in my
Heart

"5 days''
How long is take
That love,
Joy,
Worship,
Was overgrown with anger,
Hatred.
That thicket
palm leaves by
Replace to the thorns,
Betrayal and humiliation.
How long is take
That mouth
Seemed to death,
Without any eyelids
Batting,
All hope
That have been
With longing
Waiting.
Five days -

"Potter's field"
This land
Dry and hard
Like a stone
Like a rock
Don’t fall for it
Any drop of rain
And the grain each is thrown to
Is died in the blink of an eye
Worms only
Like on Judas soul
Somewhere on the branch
Nearly hanged
Tunnels are digging
Up to the gates of Hell
With pleadingly asking
To be redeemed
Bleeding this land in
Enormity of suffering
For every one
Of the thirty silver’s pieces
For each spike of the
Thorns Crown
For every moment
Agony on the Cross

"Father''
Great Spirit
Shine goes off
Although His Glow
We need
God Father
Probably gave him know
That is time
Already to go
To Heaven
But even
So many things
Among of His thoughts
Are waiting
But is too hard
Body’s give advice
Although the Spirit
Still can
Fly
Enough is
His one gesture
For souls of millions
Giving hope
And the strength
For daily
Persist
Although the wind
Is most
Blowing to the eyes
Already bell is beat
Spirit slowly faded
A huge sign is
World envelops
With sadness of hearts
Extinguished in us
Because along with His
Heart
Was resounded

"Manger"
In Bethlehem, which so far is
From here does not even see,
Past events is now echo,
From centuries, their voice is heard.
When old Joseph Maria’s drove
On old donkey to Bethlehem
It was not at all a good time
To wander so ahead.
But someone said:
All people must be count in book.
So Joseph had to go on there.
Although the child should coming into the world
And when they reached Bethlehem,
Sleep did not want nobody to give them;
So I wandered still ahead
The trail led them to Manger.
And a miracle happened in the stable,
That changes all fate.
Child’s small beating heart
Everyone’s Hope gives vote.
And though one thousand years pass
Child's voice is in bells sound
Mention this Holy Day,
When for the world He was born.
Because it is after all the most important
This manger in the heart still to have.
And let all have it there,
Not only in this special day.

"Father John"
He went to rest
After a long journey
By the Angels
roam pastures
By now look
On top of it all
What in his poems
For us all posted
Angel passed
What went around the world
I cleaned the loves
What is spilled
All of these crumbs
Carefully collected
By lying on the sidewalk
Are not wasted
St. Peter's
Met at the heaven’s door,
What's the most important keys
In the hands of its holding
and Agnes
The lamb's face
What a smile
When she saw him
And in a moment
With God’s Mother
He will could talk
About this yellow wagtail
Which enjoys
His black beak;
This, as it is
He wrote about it in a letter.

"Flogging"
Silencium
He said
Silencium idiote
By signing the resulting
Command execution flogging
He looked contemptuously
On the whip thongs
hooked hooks
The raw table top
I laugh sold silence
silence
Maybe he knew
Maybe he understand
The Living God
For the Passion he take
That just as Judas
Will be guilty for this
Also for his blame
Blood fresh and clean
Will be shed
Maybe he knew
Maybe he understand
That in the Bread and Wine
coming victory
For everything that was
For all that will be
That God's son to death
For people agreed
Although he loved him
As no one can
Maybe he knew
Maybe he understand
This was ordered

"Salvation on the back"
On my back
salvation came
I was with him
Before he was born
Before in a manger
sheaf of hay
Was fined for him
His miracle of my legs bore
When the holy city
greeted him
In its doors
you
cheering with
Leaves of palm
Rising overhead
Hallelujah!
Was carried by the wind
Through the desert ...
And then You betrayed Him
not I
I was faithful to Him
Although I am only
A donkey ..

"Seven Days"
When Glow was came down to earth
Ray of sunshine illuminating
Laboriously by millions
Infinitely a long years
Preparing seas and lands
His own smiling much absorbed
Engrossed in own work
That forgot to goes a sleep
He create a mountains peaks
Valleys plateaus poured
Tree roots deep in the ground
Firmly hide
Finger He used for rivers draw
And streams nimble pushed
From His clouds lung
And wind was blowing with whole power
Finally, He fell asleep very tired
Nestled in the hands of God
Which smile
Above his head was hiding
Because for light's millions years
In the warm God's eye
Was turned
Into seven days

"Three Kings"
They came
To make a bow
For a Child
The Noah’s heirs
The sons of his sons
Three world cultures fathers
Casper – forefather’s Sema heir
Melchior - as Japheth white
Balthazar - like Ham by sun parched
One with bow from Arabian
The second with bow from Asia
The third from Sub-Saharan Africa
Have made gifts of thanks
For survival of the flood
For coming of a Savior
The Gold as a gift to the King
Incense as gift to His Divinity
Myrrh as a support in the man’s passion

"To Shepherds Angel Whispers"
To Shepherds Angel whispers
To be awakened from a sleep
Because was born in a stable
This Who will save people
Though as small as buckthorn
Located in the hay
Shepherds run all
Give Him bow down
The star shows the way
Bring joy in the hearts
Do not mind them at all
That wander barefoot is
They all take off their hats
And are in Stable kneel
That Savior was born there
Are singing joyfully
Let Sing and we with them
The Good News song
Which with Star in day December’s
Comes to all of Us

"Straw"
Forehead of thorns
With angrily they took on
And like sweat
Sprinkled in read
But He did not defend
Before this himself
Although with all the strength
They mocked from Him
They plowed His back with a whip
As a field
When for seeding
In Spring is on preparing
Hands and feet
They nailed with nails
Like a ceiling beams
When you build your house
And His flank with a spear
As the fish they pierced
When you caught
Walking riverside
And He said
They do not know what they do
And up to heaven
To His Father
Eyes look raised
And He was forgive
All what were His suffer
When in His body
Has lost strength
Already
This way from martyrdom
Nourishment for the soul
With love to the people
He did

"Ashes and Ghost"
Lean your head in humility
To reach the beginning
Lean your head and
Find your foundation
To feel like with Ashes
Spirit's breath combines
And from handful of nothing
Becomes a human being
For feel no fear
Before this moment
From each other
Will be again separated
And invite the Spirit
Your's creator to each other
And your ash with the earth's ash
Will be connected

"Bethlehem"
If today
Jesus was born
On This Earth
Where there is no peace
In this little stable
At the middle of a dispute
Illuminated by
Star’s crown
Without shepherds
On the surrounding fields
Without gifts
From Wise Men’s from the East
Those never
Reached there
To this wires
With guns and hostility
If He will come
And wept bitterly
Wrapped in
Maternal care
Does anyone at all
Will hear him
And welcomed
Giving Him homage

"Let it be among you"
When the happy song will sound, which proclaims the time of birth,
When the warm voice of an Angel to the shepherds will let know
When the star dust will cut its tail depths of the sky,
And will show the Three Kings, the only one of the world parties
Let it be among you, let it be among you,
Happy think, joyful thought is this.
When cattle kneeling, which in a stable are all,
And to cover their child Virgo give her shawl,
When the hay in the manger will be used for sending Him
I will fill in what was sounded in the words of the prophets.
Let it be among you, let it be among you,
Happy think, joyful thought is this.
When hope will arise for those who have lost it,
And sit down together at a table in family happy circle,
To remember everything that happened in the Night;
When from letter's read are sounds this words fully Glory.
Let it be among you, let it be among you,
Happy think, joyful thought is this.
And by all other days, that will go already after
Will sounded like a heartbeat that song heard in the night
And will beat in goodness of the human souls around
To anyone be not showered by sticky dust of hate.
Let it be among you, let it be among you,
Happy think, joyful thought is this.

You calling to me Lord
When only a dream
Come down from my eyes
When my sinful body
The day starts
And want to go to You
Effatha
You are repeating when I'm doubting
and falling down
Under the weight of life
And Your's hand
You are pulling to me
That I could
Go on
Effatha
In my soul You are saying
With fullness of Your love
because although
I see
I hear
I lack so much

Effatha – Be opened! (Mk 7,31-37)
"Effatha" (II)
Effatha
This – Be opened - means
Jesus said
To the deaf-mute
After this as He hands
Had pulled
Praying for him
To the ear
Put His finger
And He touched the tongue
Has looked up at the sky
To the Father
Beseeching that His prayer
Father listened
And a miracle was happen
About ones
No one hadn't should hear
Because Jesus forbidden them to speak
What was their experience
But they went and proclaimed
Zealously preached in their hearts
About the fact what on lake
He, ours
Savior did
