IN HONOUR OF FATHER THOMAS ROSICA
SONNET 88
Dear Father Rosica is a true, good friend
Lets his little candle burn clear and bright,
Serves the Lord with all his strength and his might.
A message of hope and comfort does send.
A lover of youth on whom they depend,
A beacon of hope where the world needs light,
Following Jesus, fighting the good fight,
A message of service to many send.
Strengthening families, helping them depend
On the message of the master, choose right,
A leader with purpose and pure delight.
A man of God, a friend to those who seek
True goodness, so bless him Lord, he is meek.
