Hope

HOPE


Troops of despondent locusts have fallen dead
To the farthest, blooming buds have spread

Obliterated the fence of limitations
Has stretched its wings, the freedom equations

Gigantic leaps though planned, when pulls us out of race
Every Rung of the tallest ladder finds its purposeful place

When drifted and lost on a chilling, scary rainy night
A cozy cottage with burning fire-place in sight!

"Every Rung of the tallest ladder finds its purposeful place"...this binds the piece together nicely. Hope is a ladder, not always easily climbed. J.
