Charity

The hungry need food, feed them.
The sick need healing, tend them.
The homeless need shelter, give refuge.
The living don't need your tears,
They need your attention,
Concern,
Action,
You.
YOU are charity

Hello Catherine, I would like to use your poem in a TV show that I am working on, it will air on Amazon Prime. Is it OK if I use your poem, "Charity"?
