Truth Be Known
Philanthropic attitude leads to generosity
While generosity therefore leads to care
Giving to another provides fulfillment
As we, together, learn then how to share
Though money lining pockets, provides comfort
It also gives reward if given free
Purchase, not a good, but human character
As the heart of man’s the goal of which we seek
Let not account, tell you then of value
For worth’s defined, a level how we give
Give of yourself, maybe all, to have nothing
For then is when you’ll really learn to live
