Perhaps - Just Perhaps

Perhaps love is the answer but maybe not Perhaps utopia is coming but maybe not Perhaps we will be "saved" by one of the various messiahs people speak of but maybe not Perhaps - just perhaps we must rely on our own strength and convictions to carry us through the years Pray to whatever god or gods you wish It all boils down to the fact that as the sun begins to fade it is time to gather our strength Prepare for the upcoming years Perhaps - just perhaps we can have a brillant future with luck and good old fashioned persistence to guide us through

Perhaps all out questions will be answered but probably not! Great questions and one never knows they may be!;)

- Perhaps, go barefoot in the grass ... Smile along with others .... Lie on your back and look at the stars .... - So easy and so difficult .... - What if we try to turn on a bit on what we do ? - Perhaps we should rather go for more walks in the woods? ... Sing more in the shower? ... Or laugh a little more? -Perhaps ... we should be happy with our own lives and good old fashioned persistence, Matthew :) - Lovely written, my friend :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

The essence of your poem I found in these lines: with luck and good old fashioned persistence to guide us through. I felt the hesitation in your poem on prospects of a bright future. Love always carries the day in difficult times. You said it well, Matthew.
