Free verse poem

Hope is the breeze with which your soul flies The endless relief silencing cries

Hope is the wish the next day will gleam Nothing can stop your optimistic dream

Hope is the promise tomorrow you’ll soar You’ll open your wings and head for the shore

Hope is the gift that lightens your loads Guiding you home through dark dusty roads

Hope shows you truth in what can yet be The seed in your hand will be a mighty tree

Hope holds you fast through every dark night Strengthens your will to continue to fight

Hope will protect you when the whole world is cracked So never let go until hope becomes fact

Poet’s Note

Sometimes all you need is to believe tomorrow will be better. Hope has never been more in need than it is right now. Too many are losing hope, and the results are tragic.

Night becomes day; rain turns to sun. If today is too much, hold on. Believe tomorrow will be better, and you’ll see that it’s true.

Until next time, keep fighting.
