Bejeweled Hearts

Exploring the profound essence of philanthropy through a poetic lens, celebrating its virtues and transformative power in society.

Most consider wealth
As the tree,
And charity
Its petty fruits.

A set of Bejeweled Hearts,
Though, dare
To crown charity
Atop wealth.

Philanthropy:
Their art and philosophy,
Passion and devotion,
Material fortune,
Spiritual future.

They adopt others’
Pain and fear,
And instead make
Hearts cheer.

Their hearts:
Vast and robust,
Their souls:
Kind and loving.

They endear
Children of humanity,
Bracing them
In the mantle of empathy.

Charity for them
Is a vigorous Act,
While others neglect
As a passive Idea.

May Lord empower
Their prowess,
For every good
May be witness.
