Magnanimity

It is an altruistic breeze that
Ferries streams of charity,
A bountiful calliope of open hospitality.
And shades of magnanimity give rise
To generosity til I am you,
Til you are me, a blending of humanity.

And wisdom grows what kindness sows
To flourish in the afterglow.
For Heaven knows ‘tis apropos
To measure beyond quid pro quo.

To view the show from high plateau
And watch the goings-on below
Where fire and ice trade lethal blows
And never flow simpatico.

The heart and mind reach far beyond
The premise of a magic wand,
So all may bare their pedigree
In waves of magnanimity.
