1951


a woman blessed
walks in charity and love -
our Saint Teresa

the works of heaven
even for mortals so blessed -
still a mystery love

  5. She will always be Mother Teresa I think. Saint she may be and there are so many others too...unassuming humble selfless working nuns devoted to the poor and suffering in the third world whom no one ever hears about. Blessed Sunday to you Gillena !

  13. Yes she did become a saint... maybe it's easier to remember her that way, but in a way it's a pity too.

  20. Thanks for your appreciation Bjorn, i think however it will take a long long time for people to forget her works of charity . I think the focus of both saint and Mother of can reside side by side

  27. Lovely! The simplicity and lack of embellishment of the haiku form - the perfect vehicle to pay tribute to a woman who devoted her life to faith, charity and clarity of purpose.
