Linda Alice Fowler Poet Verse

Charity - Yalto

“Love is not patronizing and charity isn't about pity, it is about love. Charity and love are the same -- with charity you give love, so don't just give money but reach out your hand instead.” – Mother Teresa

Charity
at Christmastime
hardly
ends the season.
It continues with
enduring
goodwill,
elevates
caring,
amity.
Celebrate
humility from
simple gestures of our
love
for one another.
