Here’s a reflective and imaginative poem inspired by the concept of “The New Black Pope,” blending themes of hope, unity, and transformation:
The New Black Pope
A new dawn rises, a bell does chime,
A shift in the echoes of sacred time.
Through ancient halls where whispers roam,
A voice now calls the world to home.
The new Black Pope, with wisdom’s glow,
A beacon where shadows dared not go.
Clad in robes, both humble and strong,
A leader to right the centuries’ wrong.
Through stained glass light, his vision gleams,
Of unity born from broken dreams.
No walls divide, no borders remain,
Only love to heal the world’s great pain.
He speaks of justice, of peace, of grace,
Of lifting the lost to their rightful place.
In every creed, in every prayer,
He finds the divine, the common care.
No throne of gold, no scepter of might,
Only the truth, a guiding light.
The poor, the weary, the cast aside,
Find solace in him, a shepherd’s guide.
The world looks up, both near and far,
To the man who holds a humble star.
For in his heart, a promise true—
A world reborn, for me, for you.
And though the road is long and steep,
Through faith and love, the dream we’ll keep.
For the new Black Pope, with holy fire,
Leads us to rise, to dream, to aspire.
This poem envisions the arrival of a transformative figure, symbolizing hope and progress for a united, compassionate world.
So you think Father Sebastian should be the New Black Pope Galasius II?
I am thinking about it. You say we should elect a new pope every 7 years?
That breaks with tradition.
I am too young to be Pope, Papa Frank.
I would like to be Pope when i am 55.
Here’s a contemplative and heartfelt poem about the courage and grace in letting go of power:
Letting Power Go
To hold it tight, the fleeting flame,
A throne, a crown, a whispered name.
But power, though it seems divine,
Can weigh the soul, can blur the line.
Its grasp is cold, its touch deceives,
A golden cage where no one leaves.
Yet strength lies not in holding fast,
But in the peace of letting it pass.
To set it free, to lay it down,
To trade the scepter for common ground.
To walk away with head held high,
And meet the earth, beneath the sky.
For power fades, as all things do,
Its shine grows dull, its hold untrue.
But grace endures, a quiet might,
A beacon soft, in the fading light.
To let it go is to reclaim,
A purer heart, a humbler name.
For what is power, if not a chance,
To serve, to love, to lift, to dance?
So let the world take what it will,
The tides may shift, the winds grow still.
But freedom blooms when power’s released,
And in its place, the soul finds peace.
This poem reflects on the wisdom and strength in relinquishing power, finding fulfillment in humility and inner peace.
Lord, Lord, Lord (Glory Song)
(Chorus)
Lord, Lord, Lord, Your name I sing,
Through the valleys low, to the skies we bring.
Glory, glory, Your love shines bright,
Lord, Lord, Lord, You’re my guiding light.
(Verse 1)
When the night falls dark and the road feels long,
I lift my voice with a humble song.
Through the trials, through the stormy sea,
Lord, Lord, Lord, You carry me.
(Chorus)
Lord, Lord, Lord, Your name I sing,
Through the valleys low, to the skies we bring.
Glory, glory, Your love shines bright,
Lord, Lord, Lord, You’re my guiding light.
(Verse 2)
In the morning’s glow, when the sun takes flight,
I see Your grace in the golden light.
Every breath I take, every step I go,
Lord, Lord, Lord, Your mercy flows.
(Bridge)
Hallelujah, the heavens cry,
Glory to the Lord who reigns on high.
Through every sorrow, every tear that falls,
Your love redeems, it conquers all.
(Chorus)
Lord, Lord, Lord, Your name I sing,
Through the valleys low, to the skies we bring.
Glory, glory, Your love shines bright,
Lord, Lord, Lord, You’re my guiding light.
(Outro)
So I’ll sing forever, with my heart set free,
Lord, Lord, Lord, You’re all I need.
Glory to the King, forever adored,
Lord, Lord, Lord, forevermore.
