"As life itself explains:"


Poem Artwork

Hope

 

The rain came then went

Having laundered my town

The clouds are all spent

So the sun can pour down

Bright gold on the scene

 

The air is brilliant blue

The earth is washed clean

Old leaves and new buds too

With that urgent green

Early spring vibrancy

 

I am glad to be

Alive right now right here

As once-blind eyes see

This blooming of the year

Life returns to me

 

The blood flows in my veins

Like sap in a tree

After the labor pains

Of the birth of spring

As life itself explains:

 

Hope is everything

This is so wonderful, Cousin! And like most labor, I hope you forget the 'painful' part, or perhaps we need it to remind us to be grateful for 'the sun'?

Hope is what really and truly keeps the world turning. Hope for love, hope for children, hope for peace on and on it goes and when the hope dies so will we.
Great write Steve.
