Emmanuel Paul Poet Rhyme

Not Charity But Love

I give this not because I dare;
I do not give because of fear;
I give because I really care,
And always will.

Let others wring their hands and frown;
Reflect on values tearing down;
How mighty hands do let us drown,
When times are shrill.

Take you this heart-felt gift for this;
That we are one entwined in bliss;
What we envisaged does exist,
But we are blind.

Cast wayward eyes to nearer ground;
And measure worth in this compound;
The gems we seek already found,
As by design.

So as the toll of human waste;
Mounts at a still increasing pace;
I will not let you farrow ways,
Alone at night.

This journey is for us to share;
And by my oath to this I swear;
For Time will whisper “were you there?”
What should we write.
