Hope

Hope is white like a kind mother’s heart praying to God

It tastes like nourishing food for body and soul alike

It smells sweet like a colourful rose in a lover’s hand

It looks like a full moon sparkling in the sky to no end

It sounds like a burst of laughter in a joyful baby’s mouth

It feels like having a bright rainbow in one’s sight.
