a woman blessed
walks in charity and love -
our Saint Teresa
the works of heaven
even for mortals so blessed -
still a mystery love

I wonder how many will continue to call her mother instead of saint...
ReplyDeleteWell penned, Gillena!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy she is a saint now.
ReplyDeleteFew can doubt she was worthy of the honour.
ReplyDeleteShe 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 !
ReplyDeleteShe was so amazing. I like this tribute to her, Gillena.
ReplyDeleteThe exact same thing, i am thinking Magaly

Yes she did become a saint... maybe it's easier to remember her that way, but in a way it's a pity too.
ReplyDeleteand she continues to inspire.
ReplyDeletea woman blessed
walks in charity and love .......so apt, I like these lines
Such a degree of selfless love is indeed a great and sacred mystery!
ReplyDeletesuch people are rare and true ornament of this earth .they show the real way of living and humanity .glad you remembered her today dear
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous ❤
ReplyDeleteIt was an iconic moment - I wonder too if Saint will resonate as much as Mother.. Time will tell.. A fitting commemoration
ReplyDeleteAmen! So be it.

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

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.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your appreciation Wendy
