Compassion for the destitute,
Kind gestures to the vulnerable,
Essential gifts of care!

From selfless, sunny temperament
To sacrificial self-denial,
True nurture’s spirit loves!

Perception of such attributes,
Regarded as most honourable,
We stop to stand and stare!

Sequential to high compliment
Of kindness offered with a smile,
Humanity improves!

Consideration of the weak,
Of more enduring values speak!

    This is so perfect for now….as we see so many people without home, food, care etc….we all need to show great compassion at this time.
    Beautiful words as ever and the photograph is stunning. Janet. xxx

    Indeed, Elliot – kindness, nurture, compassion, self-denial – are we old-fashioned to hold these virtues dear?

    I happened to visit the other day a recently opened asylum for refugees near-by and got some insight into the life of the refugees and the people who are caring for them.
    “We are endlessly grateful to be here,” told us a young African. And his gratitude seemed to be deeply honest.
    A statement from one of the incredibly involved volunteers was: “We also get back very much for it.”
