Hope Gives New Heart

Hope Gives New Heart I sat in pain looking in Life of sad songs loves laughing Where once, once we did belong Starry nights aflame sexual delights my loss, my blame sad is the song Dreams now sing of sad relief Casting doubts against the storm misery eats my grief My defeated soul sleeping in tears no promises come, none for years Yet hope stirs its birthing pains now eating into my heart Can your love bring its glory A message sent in my last dream screamed lovers story, another sweet start hope gives new heart..... R.J. Lindley 11,09, 1979

Hi Robert...that date takes us back quite a few years in time! I am sure that many of us can relate to some kind of pain caused because of love or the lack of it. Much water has passed under the bridge since then, and I am sure that you finally found true love which you deserve. Take care my friend. // paul

Robert, A quite wonderful older poem here (I noticed by the date at the end.) This is a sad poem, but "Hope" does spring eternal my friend. I'll leave you with a "7" and my appreciation in posting this fine write. Quite late here in Germany and so I'm signing off now. Cheers and Spill Ink!! Gary
