This single line is most expressive and offers scope for emotions, Ann. Our world is full of anger due to global instability, injustices, economic insecurity, etc. No wonder hope/optimism find it hard to stay afloat! ~ Regards // paul

Your "Hope" is a powerful Monoku read. I enjoy reading... "Good Luck" I did "Why Not Read A Good Book." Have a Blessed Day Writing Away......................
