HOPE... ‘a tiny flicker’
Hope is in the last flicker
Of the dying candle
As it starts burning again
With more life and brightness
Hopeful is the sunbeam
As through tiny crack in the door it passes
Its light will dispel darkness
As soon as it touches the floor
Hopeful is the ocean
Its waves will rise after every fall
Racing to the shore and winning
Their forward motion they’ll never halt
Hopeful is the tiny bird
As it gathers twigs for its nest
The branches will support her home
And let the hatchlings be
Hopeful are the summer clouds
As they search for nimbus in the skies
Rain will bring relief and joy
To the eyes of the farmer weary
Hopeful are lofty mountains
With their towering heads
Climbers will reach their summit
And crown them in the sky
Hopeful in the sky is the
Disappearing waning moon
After the no moon it will
Soon again be full
Hopeful is the weary sun
As it sets every evening
The sunrise that follows
Will bring new opportunities
Hopeful are the breaths
Of terminally ill patients
Will they see a few more dawns?
May the Almighty change His Will
Hopeful is mankind
That in peace we all live
Pray all wars cease
We show kindness and humanity
