Mittens At Your Service

Armed by protective sensibility I offer my warming security Around loving protective certainty Insured with comfortable serenity. I’m your mittens, full of vibrant beauty Ready to fulfill my granted duty Prepared by orphanage authority To guard kids from infectious germs so dirty. I serve as your gloves of identity With embroidered names, daintily pretty Assuring compassion*’s tenacity Marked by kindness midst gentle purity.
*Lamentations 3:22 It is the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. Personification in monorhyme January 19, 2023 Honorable Mention, "UPTO YOU" Poetry Writing Contest Sponsored by Brian; judged on 2/10/2023.

You find mittens and gloves equally serviceable, both performing acts of compassion and neither of them, superior or inferior. Beautiful entry for the contest. All the Best Beata
