When Songs Cannot Sail
When songs cannot sail,
when flowers fall and fail,
when poetry turns pale,
when tales turn to a tail,
when art's aura cannot
avail,
when the winds start to
wail,
when the stars turn stale,
when the rainbows rail,
when the moon turns to a
mail...
when nature becomes a
nail:
There is a hall in our hearts,
when all stops it starts,
it impacts and... imparts,
it's an alarm that alerts
us when deceit looms like
darts.
It helps us to cruise and
cope
when reality look like a
rope,
it drives us like a dope
to the skies of a new scope;
it hails from our heart:
hope.
