Charity Princess
Succumbing to enchantment of creative fantasy
exempted from idolatry midst make-believe freedom’s ecstasy
I behold myself among charity princesses, exuding sweet fervency
melding Venus and Aphrodite’s attributes toward earnest love-excellency.
There am I sowing gracious kindness
never tolerating selfishness and greediness
granting wishes that regard over-all victory wellness
encouraging forgiveness prevalence, devoid of haughtiness.
In my assigned area, I bask under radiance of caring glow
visiting orphanages, warming the children with concern-flow
providing foster and adoptive families to every homeless fellow
while reaching-out, aiding the needy, aged, and sick against hardships’ billow.
Instilling joyous altruism around generosity’s opulence
while constantly sharing blessings of good-heartedness influence
instilled goodness virtue offers sincere friendship melting apathy’s silence
meeting differences with respect, valuing one another’s uniqueness license.
Striving to make faithfulness reign, ultimately triumphant
rejoicing as human weaknesses champion over being arrogant
"charity vessel" am I with mission to spread peace that’s jubilant
while yielded to the Sovereign Source of divine love*, eternally abundant.
*I John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
