Hope Is

Hope is that intangible everything

The reason to live and go on

Through all the hard times

Past all the pain

To grow more fully into ourselves

Reaching out for our dreams

It is the spring that sustains us

Through life and past death

Flowing eternally our strength

The backbone of the soul

Holding us upright and unwavering

Hope is the blood that courses through the spirit

And makes us brave enough to seek to be whole

 

C. Nichols

I enjoyed this poem and love the way you wrapped it all up so neatly at the end. Sorry I can't afford to donate to keep you here. I can barely afford my own gold membership. Platinum is out of the question. My website is free and gets many hits. A lot of the Authors Den also post there. You might want to check it out. I hope that invitation is not considered "commercial" because my only intent and purpose is to gain exposure for poets.

Intuitive, especially, "that intangible everything...the spring that sustains us." Nice write.
