I have always envisioned hope as feathers, thanks to a favorite poet, but as time goes on and life flies by I realize that for me, hope has tendrils As layers of life accumulate, tendrils of hope climb and grow when a layer of pain develops a tendril will sprout When a loved one spirals and scars accumulate, a tendril appears and will reach for the sky When a loved one dies and leaves you to sort through the ashes of life, a tendril will shoot forth When a heart cries out to the one who created it, a tendril will reach all the way to the heart
