~ Compassionate Hands… ~ 

☆

When feeding the hungry,

if pride deliberately creeps,

When clothing the bare,

If boastful tone so seeps

 *

When aiding the deprived,

a fake gleam does shine,

Then know for sure that

you’re not so truly divine

 *

For true service is humble,

quiet, gracious and amiable,

No pomp and show, just

a gentle hand so charitable

* 

Help must be secretly given,

with no ostentatious claim,

True charity’s beauty lies in

its quietness, devoid of fame

* 

Let kindness be the badge,

not a hollow public display,

For in the divine humility,

true service finds its way

☆
