Sam Kauffman Poet Rhyme

Hope

Hope

Reverberates and resonates in all of life’s quests;
 Showing – illuminating - a path unexplored;
Gracious companion, colleague and guest;
 Sent in a new light - in darkness implored;
Troubles and toils given their rest;
 Sunlight and sight tint optimism restored

John Watt April 21, 2020 at 3:51 PM You already know how much I love poems about hope, Sam, thank you for this! Especially enjoyed "Sunlight and sight tints optimism restored." I like the way you used alliteration at the beginning of each line. Also how you use the title to frame what the poem is about, even though it never mentions the word hope. Makes me smile. Sam Kauffman April 21, 2020 at 4:49 PM Thank you dear friend! Alliteration was fun! I was hoping - haha - that the poem would make sense without the mention of the theme except in the title. Affirmation most appreciated! Smiles are good - blessings!
