Hope

Amid dark despair
And the deepest fear
Hope is always there
A voice we can hear
With the inner ear

Heed its message
It will assuage
The despair stage
And give courage

Take action
And move on
With caution

To cope
Don't mope

HOPE!





I chose to rhyme my diminished hexaverse

Ty Townsend Date: 1/10/2015 1:59:00 PM It's always good to have hope in the darkest of times. Hope is what keep some folks going through the day or with their lives. Login to Reply John Beharry Date: 1/11/2015 8:13:00 PM Thanks, Ty. This reminds me of the song "Whispering Hope"(1868) - /Soft as the voice of an angel/ Breathing a lesson unheard/ Hope with a gentle persuasion/Whispers her comforting word/ Wait till the darkness is over/ Wait till the tempest is done/ Hope for the sunshine tomorrow/ After the shower is gone/
