Blessed Fr Jerzy Popieluszko
On this occasion we post a poem Teresa Boguszewska.
Father George without wounds
What's it gonna be?
behind the empty eye of the pupil
behind the roughness of the sheets?
It'll most likely odor like valley green.
And the sun will enter the corners of the soul
Maybe for a meeting.
The closest will come
And they won't remember.
sins against them
a photos not liked
will become valuable
They'll open the depths of someone's life
Fr Jerzy
no wounds
And in the holy sutanna
He'll come to say hello.
– though he did not say goodbye –
hug and say
He's always with us.
But this closeness – as if in imagination
like in another space
far distant from me
So I'll kneel
in the account of conscience
It'll be forever.
until God calls me by name.
Teresa Boguszewska (September 2014)
