Today's the Feast of Saint John Chrysostom,
The Luminary of the “Golden Mouth”
The name is Greek, -“Gold Mouth” he’s called in Rome,-
He preached to learnèd folks and those uncouth.
Profound his thoughts and his theology,-
His words are treasured in the Christian home,
And meditated on with piety,
And sung in choirs by Dominas and Dom.
His golden utterances learned by heart,-
Of homilies he wrote so many a tome,
He too was great in the poetic art,-
With words that tasted of the honeycomb.
Today’s the Feast of Saint John Chrysostom,
The bishop- with the golden tongue and mouth,
Who spreads his wings over Cheri Sue-Con,-
I pray he has some words left for a Louse!

God sends His angels to those in need. He sends His saints to each of us in His time. We truly our blessed in our weaknesses, for it is then that we realize how great our need for Him.
