Hope
Hope is like a hummingbird
Or so some people say
And one appeared without a word
On this eve of New Year's Day
A glimmer, green, on wings abuzz
Hovered at my window
As sure a sign as ever was
Like last week's Christmas rainbow
And though these small things can't undo
The pain this year has wrought
The hope within me burns anew
A feeling long forgot.
