Mother Theresa Virginia Salter life etched as rivulets on every feature of her face tender hands extended full of love, full of grace clad ever so humbly covered head to toe yet kneeling down to rescue the weakest, wanton soul without consideration of self or magnanimity blindly courageous in His will she made her plea a mother with a heart larger than her tiny frame kindled lives and hope in the light of His awesome flame passing from her birth into a life of wondrous giving a new birth was her true fate to be His servant ever living into eternity she went surely with a crown everlasting for service to the will of God ever faithfully a blessing © March 15, 2001 |

A most beautiful tribute to a woman who gave a whole lot more than she ever got. In doing this she taught mankind that it is indeed better to give than receive. She was an angel who walked this earth not near long enough. Thank you for your kind thoughts on this great woman. Kate Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood. T S Eliot |

Well you picked my favorite person in history VAS...she said the most profound thing..."If we worry too much about ourselves, we won't have time for others." and I remember that every morning when I wake. Well done! Good luck with your challenge, nice dedication to someone who truly did make a difference!  ~*~A poet is someone who reads more than they write ~*~ |
