Hope

Hope Hiking through the dark, watchful woods all night Looking for any star that’s bright Not a single living soul in sight Only creepy, crawly critters in the shadows to my left and right Imagine my plight Eyes wide open, intently praying with all my might And to my great delight In spite Of my overwhelming fright Finally saw a faint streak of light Up ahead – peeking in – a welcoming daylight! 05-23-2014 Contest: A poem you have not entered in a contest #5 Sponsor: Poet Destroyer A Placement: 9th

PANDITA, Congratulations, . I hope you don't mind your placement in my contest. Out of past experience, I know many don't like when I don't have a first or second placement. However, this is my judgment, and it only feels right, to place each poem, in the order I would have, as if there had been a first or second placement. Believe me, I'm not taking from you or your winning poem. Hugs, and enjoy my blog, "Conundrum" if you'd like. Have yourself a sweet day. ...always Linda

Hi Pandita, Life certainly has moments of fright, filled with "creepy, crawly critters." Your poem astutely notes that prayer and hope will help us survive these dark moments by finding the light. Awesome! Best wishes, Carolyn
