Mistaken For A Need Of Affection

the charity of the heart
can be mistaken as a beggar asking
for affection when
in truth the act of giving is a matter
of following God's passion
to give life
offer love for more love
making love
to fulfill the promise of life
to give it that much needed
sense of posterity
the laying of the foundation for reason
to be alive
in the hearts of those who no longer believe
in logic
