A Poem For Brother Anthony

Brother Anthony can you spare a prayer
for one in turmoil and despair
you're in the nearer presence of Our Lord and God
while in this vale of tears I still trod
my dear dad has recently passed
to Heaven's far greener grass
I miss him so
you probably know
and alas his will cannot be found
so with this in mind
I approach this sacred ground
asking for your intercession now.

Pray that my dad's will be found
so that from my worries I be unbound.


-A poem written by Christopher Dracul Van Helsing
for Brother Anthony Kowalczyk
a very blessed and holy monk
whose grave I visited today
in the City of Saint Albert
to ask for his prayers and intercession
in the Communion of Saints
that my dad's Last Will and Testament
be soon located and found.
