Divine Echoes

From the Vatican, 22 April 2024
The Secretariat of State has been asked by His Holiness
Pope Francis to express his gratitude for the gift sent to him
and for the sentiments that prompted this thoughtful
presentation.
In Vatican's heart where the silence is gold
A gift appeared stories tenderly told
From the hands of goodwill to the Pontiff’s grace
An echo of kindness in this holy place
The Secretariat holds with reverent care
Gratitude woven in every prayer
For the sentiments sent with thoughts so pure
A blessing received that shall ever endure
Heavenly whispers through corridors
Glide
Where grateful hearts in humility reside
With every note of thanks
We sing
To the giver's soul
Joy we bring
His Holiness feels the love unfold
In a world where compassion takes hold
A treasure not of gold but of the heart
Bringing solace to souls miles apart
Reflecting on this thoughtful creation
He offers prayers for every nation
For in this gift
A love divine
A reminder of the sacred line
May these echoes ripple far and wide
In Gratitude
Faith shall always abide
With gentle words and a humble smile
His blessings reach across every mile
