the teen boy who broke the stereotype

He wore jeans and trainers,

played soccer ball with friends.

He went to school

like every other 15 year old

boy and played computer games

what is different with this boy is

on the 7th of september

he will be canonized as saint

A boy who went through same experiences

as any young millennial

but made his choice day after day.

to never lose his temper,

to spend his time wisely

to play and pray

to read ,play music, and learn

everyday.

we have a lot to learn from a boy

born in London, raised in Milan

now entombed in Assisi where

2 other Saints life and work began.
