POPE FRANCIS'S ASCENT

Pope Francis died, 

Thus

Poorer leaving the earth and humanity in pain,

While heaven,

Celebrating is, for becoming richer by one saint.

Dear Demetrios, my esteemed poet friend, your verse is a beautiful tribute to the "People's Pope". His papacy leaves a legacy of kindness and humility, a loving shepherd to the poor. Indeed, the earth is a poorer place for losing Pope Francis, and Heaven is, indeed, richer. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

What a lovely visit it is, dearest Susan. Yes, He was a great human being and a living saint. God already has prepared a wonderful place for him to stay. Be blessed.

It is so beautiful to see you again. It reminds me of the 'old good days." Yes, Pope Francis was the man of God on earth. Now he is going to be sitting next to our Lord. Blessings.
