Sotto Poet Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Be Generous

When times are tough
Be like a flame; shine enough
It would be an unwise wade
Allowing your star to fade.

Donate without asking why
Sense a grateful lifting of supply
Always apply the common sense
Place yourself in a sea of incense.

The same as a gentle sparrow.
With serene seas, paths were narrow.
Accept the love-planted seeds bliss.
fall short of the depths of the abyss.
