Hope
The quagmire of the heart has many gems in mud:
Crocus, water lilies, and the mineral of blood
Life and faith for a better day
When we shall say again everything is good.
Love ever adorns the twinkle of the stars,
And all things are possible because we believe
Though seasons change and the heart deceives.
Earth wears our love like a cloak
And we walk naked in the mirage of light
Two strangers passing through each other
Oblivious to the tiger I keep out of sight.
But O the citadels that poets here write
Makes a man want to stay forever
With one log to mesmerize the tiger tonight -
Spring is a new poem everywhere
Making us older with passing time
From naked trees spring grows fresh again
And this eternity in our hearts will not fade
The hill hides eternity over the glade.
O hear me, the tiger is only an enemy of the eye
Truth is the sunshine of the soul
Hope epitomize in the brevity of truth flies like a swan,
One feather is all I need for wings.
