Generosity

An intriguing encounter invites aid,
With a simple question, a friendship is born,

Open, willing, sharing,

Human interaction, honesty, generosity,
It shocked me,

It confused me,

You refused any exchange,

I sat dumbfounded and speechless,

An uncommon state,

In this city of me’s,

You offered a hand with no intentions,

No expectations,

No mischievous manipulations,

Overwhelming liberality with one’s time,

I am encouraged to give back,

But maybe the message is to give forward,

I thank you,

For your kindness has ignited my hope in people,

Opportunity, life, and friendship,

I am reconnected to the world,

Excited about our new friendship,

And truly thankful for your generosity.
