###mother Teresa (14) You'Re My Budget Poem by Rajaram Ramachandran

How can a dedicated Mother,
Single handed, take care
Of the sick, dying and poor
Lying in streets uncared for?

Hospitals refused to admit
All cases declared worst,
But she gave asylum
To every one of them.

Her courage and conviction
To serve the downtrodden
With her belief and self-will
Did support her cause well

Help came from all sources
Thus she had good resources
To keep her mission going
On this earth, in full swing.

A Chairman of a big firm,
To meet Mother, came.
He offered a property
Freely in Mumbai City.

He asked her, “Oh Mother,
I’ve my doubt and fear,
How do you manage Budget
To meet your daily target? ”

She asked him then and there,
“Who had sent you here? ”
He replied, “An inner urge I felt,
That brought me to this spot.”

She then smiled and said,
“It’s the will of God
That moves people this side
And our needs, they provide.”

“Really you’re my budget.
The grace of God is what
That moved your kind heart.
And you came here to visit.”

What a true faith she had
On Jesus, the son of God,
Who saw actually to her needs
Being met with, as promised.
