New Hope


When hope is undone, the world just seems wrong,

can’t allow hate a voice within this throng.

Turn your back as a sword covers the pen,

won’t take my will to write, not even then.



Advice from the wise, throw hope a life-line.

Feathered hope, Emily wrote in her time;

a way through is hope, according to Frost,

or Yeats’ daughter of hope when all seems lost.



Remain alive, your hope must rise supreme,

Poe described as “A Dream within a Dream”.

One path followed, even one less traveled,

hopelessness must fade, its cause unraveled.



Remember your voice, when choices are found,

Mem’ries of joy now, let new hope resound.
