Painting of Mother Teresa by Judy Joy Jones



Mother Teresas heartbeats

were for the poorest of the poor

all over earths shores



In her arms

she held close

souls the world threw out

knowing it was love from Jesus

she gave out



For those with no home

when the darkest nights

blocked Gods divine light



Mother Teresa was there

pouring love

into the dying poor



She is spending her heaven

doing good on earth

as she so often said

she would



And her radiant light

is so bright

it dries all tears

and takes away fears

of those forgotten

and alone



Mother Teresas heartbeats

were for the poorest of the poor

all over earths shores



And from inside heavens doors

she prays night and day

to dry the tears of the homeless

through the hearts and arms

of you and I
