The article presents priest Jan Twardowski as a poet who perfectly understood the needs of his small readers, children. The narrator, who makes an appeal to a reader, is a priest who delicately acquaints readers with the problem of faith, love, suffering, despair and death. Jan Twardowski often used to say during interviews that ‘religion is like an educational class in the spirit of Christian culture’. It is a smile and a tear that matter as this is the sphere children operate in. One does not need to instruct’. A child should judge itself on its own and understand that it can do many good things in life. In his works, priest Jan Twardowski gave examples of faith in the effectiveness of heroic actions. He also often highlighted that he talked to his readers and shared the faith with them as didacticism offended him. In her article, the author characterises Jan Twardowski as a subtle poet who stays away from politics and a priest who, regardless of his shyness and inability to become an entrancing speaker, reaches the hearts of numerous listeners during his sermons, especially those for children. He often used to say that when a priest sacrifices Jesus during the Holy Mass and says ‘This is my body. This is my blood’ he identifies himself with Him, not only during the Holy Mass. A priest should always be shy and humble because he was given more than others. A priest who sacrifices so many things should sanctify everything he comes across in his life: people, friendship, the books he reads and poems, if he writes them. Jan Twardowski was of the opinion that ‘in order to become a wonderful priest one first has to be an ordinary, warm-hearted and good person’.
