Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 My Generosity

Too oft I feel my word and act

To another just seems so well

That generous I be in fact,

Causing of course my head to swell.

I give money to charities,

And to many I give advice.

My generosity does please

My thinking that I am so nice.

When I needed a hearing aid,

I was aided another way,

That generosity's not made

Just by "good" stuff I do and say.

My greatest generosity

Is truly listening by me.
