Thompson Emate Poet Free verse

Hopeful Hearts

Old wishes carried into the new year,
Former desires brought into the new year,
Dim lamps longing for brightness in the new year,
Incomplete books searching for the missing pages in the new year,
Feeble trees in need of vitality elixir in the new year.

Redemption songs buoy the soul into a new world,
The bell chimes in the old cathedral reminding us of the creed,
Orbs in the sky strengthen the weary elements for another chapter,
A divine majesty accompanies us into a new arena,
The old fountain still grants wishes.

The new year revitalizes frail strands,
The new year highlights the pale colours,
The new year wets the parched ground,
The new year replaces worn-out tyres,
Bring your old wishes into the new year with hopeful hearts.

Reason A. Poteet January 15, 2025 at 4:55 AM I like this, Emate. Fresh and different approach from the older writers who are more settled and accepting. Your last line would make a good quote here. Thanks for sharing and congrats on your win. Thompson Emate January 15, 2025 at 11:52 PM Thank you Reason A. I'm honoured.
