Best Altruism Poems
AltruismI am a selfish person.
I do not like that trait in myself,
But I know it is there,
Lying dormant until such a time,
As I may be refused something
My heart may desire.
I cannot correct it, not entirely.
I cannot banish it to some shelf hidden away
From which...

AltruismBig hearts love the world
but may let too much in,
too fast, too soon;
the sense of self stretched to breaking.
Ego becomes fantasy,
a dream of emotional origins.
The world shifts away from touch,
The mind is helpless to operate on the future....

AltruismActions or gestures putting the senses into baptism
Love so pure and powerful, spreads beyond evangelism
True concern, effective enough to dilute cataclysm
Rates of its occurrence, not significant in life’s prism
Under goodness adrenaline and hyperthyroidism
Irreversible kindness, too strong for evil’s cultism
So selfless to cushion any emotional...

AltruismAnybody can do a good deed.
Just help someone in need.
You can do it. Anyone is able.
Is there anyone short of food on the table?
Do you know someone with a physical disability?
Are there persons unable to live their lives daily?
We must all act altruistically.
It is...

AltruismYou don't have to love me
And we don't have to talk
Or really even be friendly
Because my acts of kindness
Were not to get something back
They were to show I cared
When you thought nobody did
So just know one thing
Even in menial capacity
If it makes your life easier
I'll...

The Garden of AltruismFriends are medicine for a wounded heart, and vitamins for a hopeful soul. -By Steve Maraboli
Awe-inspiring gracious waves shine and glow,
While wondrous egos glare in divine allusion,
Stout wings of ethical drive and bathetic flow,
Despite two dear souls on the dual lexicon.
Affinity will acquire strength by...

AltruismThrough sad smiles and tears,
A lot was left unsaid.
The heavens above,
Also felt my pain.
You were gone too soon,
I couldn’t imagine a life without.
You touched many a life,
Giving a ray of hope,
A noble act like none other,
As you live on in another one,
Truly an angel...

The DeedMany’s the man who wished that he could
And often’s the time he knew that he should
And given the option he thought that he would
But the Deed was accomplished by someone
… Who did!...

Why Don'T We Want What Wants UsWHY DON'T WE WANT WHAT WANTS US?
The world is full of selfish people
Since we only need what we want
Forgetting what wants us
Different people, different personalities
Not only should we care about our feelings
Why not consider those who care
Who would do anything just to see us...

The ReaperWhat you send out far, far into the Universe
Will return in the same wrapping you had used.
Why you opened your heart and perhaps purse
When you needn’t have, is what you’ve accrued.
Forget not that charity is an act that receives more
Than it gives; and kindness is...
