Where there is life is hope not far away
Who live will always find encouragement
Even on the most discouraging day
And if hope is lost here is where it went
Which calls us back from the pursuit of there
To follow our hearts and awaken to
What is as vital as water and air
We hope who live since that is what we do
It is for good reason the wise ones say
That life without hope is impossible
We follow by hope through the shades of grey
To where black and white are invisible
And hope is our horizon as we go
Since hope is usually all we see
And until we try what we never know
We fall we rise we go on hopefully
To follow our hearts and awaken to
Blooming possibilities of meaning
Bending or breaking falling or leaning
We hope who live since that is what we do
If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
Much enjoyed.
