Hope

Hope sat beside me, she took me by the hand, She whispered her encouragement then wrote love in the sand. Despair came inching closer, all ready for the fight, But love who stood right next to me Stood tall in all her might Despair came barging in one day It was the month of May She was so uninvited She thought she’d have a say But Hope had lived a long long life She was with me entwined She’d wrestle all calamities And leave them all behind.
