Hope

I have hope 
For without hope 
I'd be lost 
Among a sea of travelers 
Not knowing my journey 
On this planet 
We so fondly call earth

I have hope 
For a future full of blessings 
And gratitude 

I have hope 
For a land 
That is taken care of 
And not strewn with litter 

I have hope 
For people to share 
Their skills and talents
With each other 

I have hope for you and me 
And will carry hope 
Wherever I go 
Inside my heart
