Saints Are The Happiest People, Poem by Liza Sud

Saints Are The Happiest People,



Saints are the happiest people,
And they are egoists,
They got the Law and checked it:
Get more – the more you give.

Life knows no sacrifice cause
It is endless indeed.
It’s for a soul with passions
Painful to give it seems.

SAINTS ARE THE HAPPIEST PEOPLE Yes When I was quite young I read a book called THE PERFECT JOY OF ST. FRANCIS. I still remember it had a red cover with a medieval-type drawing of Francis with birds on his shoulders, his hands, his head, & flying all around him. The book was too advanced for me at that age but I trace my love of birds, wild and domestic, to that book. Rossellini made a film in which actual monks played Francis and his earliest monks. It's very moving but also very simple and plain, just as Francis would have wanted.
