Hoping for Hope

Hope is in the tiny bud
that soon will bloom anew.

It is the breath of the sighing wind
that will blow away the hurt.

It is the flickering flame of a candle
that will hold aloft it's flame

It is the heart of the brave person
who will have the strength to lead.

We must always look to the light
The ever shining fire.

It will burn inside our hearts
strengthening soul and mind.

Have the deepest hope in thought
One that will not brake.

Keep it ever with you
Even when the gale blows hardest.

For it will drive away the shadows
from the hollow spaces.

It can save your will
in so many desperate cases.
