I heard the word -selfless
And you alone came to mind
For your selfless acts of kindness
In a world where such seemed lost.
You were a pearl with a heart so pure
One true gift the world once had
For your ways, we cannot forget
As your teachings are always in our heart.
Like light, you brighten our paths
Reminding us to love and be kind
Filling our hearts with thoughts of kindness
Bringing us closer to a state of grace.
A selfless human who became a saint
Living forever in the hearts of men
Like the light of the sun in our world
And those of the stars and the moon.
Thank you for the legacies you left behind
Thank you for the lives that you touched
Thank you for the souls you’ve inspired
Thank you! Selfless Mother Theresa.
