Charity - Haiku

This soul smiles warmly
as an open wallet empties
into a Sally Ann’s kettle

On alert for neighbours cats
while the bird feeder overflows,
feathered friends feed in peace

Charity, sharing ones heart
with those souls silently
pleading for a helping hand



Charity, such a thoughtful word. Please visit Haiku Heights for more thoughtfulness.
