[bodytext] => 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! by: Elizabeth Dandy September 13/04 Feast of St. John Chrysostom, [comments] => 1 [counter] => 153 [topic] => 55 [informant] => Elizabeth_Dandy [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 8 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => dedicatedpoems )
