Looking For My Hope

Looking for my hope Looking for my hope Things I’ve done and how I failed Still I have to cope And halt a time to moan and wail Struggling hard to make myself known Continue till my dreams have grown As roses that the seeds have sown Looking toward my scope Allow myself a future glance Looking toward my scope The time to have a second chance inure myself to all the fears To rid myself of all those tears Recapture all the waning years Looking for my hope Looking for my hope The warmth of light embracing me A sign of better things to be Musical Inspiration Poetry contest Sponsored by Joseph May May 23, 2019 Sung to the tune of Holding back the years by Simply Red

Hi Maurice: I guess as we age, We have to deal with our metaphoric geraniums. I have reach that plateau in my life and I am resigned to deal with each day accordingly. Love your wisdom....Ralph
