###mother Teresa (18) Blessed Mother Teresa



In 2003, nineteenth October,
At Rome’s Saint Peter’s square,
Pope John Paul II declared
Mother Teresa as Blessed.

She said, “If we remember
That God loves us forever,
We can also love others
Just like how He loves us.”

“The America will turn
Into a sign of peace then
To take up the lead
For the entire world.”

She often prayed with poor.
She tried to calm the lepers
Down from their worries
From the dreadful disease.

Homes for dying, Kolkata had,
But elsewhere in the world,
There existed no visible homes
Except open grounds for them.

Broken relationship, separation,
Disenchantment and desertion
In many parts of the world
Had kept the miserable life ruined.

One Mother had the courage
To show the way, at every stage,
How to serve, with love, the poor,
Also the dying at the last hour.

She never claimed as her own
For all those relief work done,
But always said, I’m a pencil
Used by Jesus as his tool.”

“I’m only his mouth piece
And I speak his words.
I’m his blessed spouse
To execute his commands.”
