"What If I Could Have the Desires of My Heart?"
What if I was able to appear anywhere in the world?
I might see a baby is born.
What if I had limitless money?
I could bring hope to our neighbors.
What if I was an angel of light?
I would secretly whisper to all that God loves them.
I wonder if I will get to sit next to Mother Teresa
At the feet of the Great Masters when they teach in Heaven?

That was beautiful, Lauri!!
ReplyDeleteNicely done. I loved it. Perfect picture. I love Mother Theresa.
My mother-in-law and Jim's sister were able to meet her in person on a trip to India years ago and they even presented her with the Current RS manual ~ I tried to attach the picture here (I think it might link back to yahoo groups - can't remember how attachments work).
Anyway, wonderful poem. Thanks!!
Blessings,
