Hearts of Gold Melting

Hearts of gold melting
Hearts of gold flowing 
The hearts of angels on this earth: 
The adopting parent, the committed missionary, the soldier in the war, the warrior of the forgotten children of the world, the teacher of life, the animal rescuer,....
How hot was it...
How hot is hot, the heroes in this world
How hot is too hot, for the caring hands that touch many



How hot was it contest

Totally agree with you on this. Lovely poem. We donated whatever was requested by the Children's Village in Tlokweng in Botswana for AIDS orphans, I run a voluntary library for which we donated the books. I give free English lessons to Spanish children and adults and help a university student with English lit. at Vittoria university. I pay the school fees and medical bills for my step daughter and granddaughter in Zim, I could go on and on. We can all make a difference. Kind regards, Ian

You burn for the ideal, Njeri. An admirable trait found in this write. This relentless pursuit for that which is pure and unselfish can be found in the writes of many people from your part of the world. It is a humbling experience, reading them. Thank you. Kim

Much to ponder with this piece. The thing about a pure heart is that although the gold will melt it will never burn up either.
