The rays of the sun, soaking
through a glass window,
Twinkling stars in the night or a
glittering light show,
Rain drops falling on the lakes
and rivers,
Chirping of birds in the morning or
the lining through the cloud, which
is silver.
They all bring to you, the reason;
To not give up;
To cherish the beauty around;
To smile;
To admire;
To soak in happiness;
To listen to the mellifluous song
of life;
And to sing that song;
HOPE,
Yes, you heard it right,
That's Hope.
Like the foundation of a
skyscraper...
Like a firefly in the night, making it
glimmer...
Like the elderly people of a
family...
Like a winning memory...
Hope paves the way to move ahead
in life,
When the winds are against you and
you have an inner strife,
Hope is the saddle when you want
to ride through,
Hope is the silence that stirs and
lets you overcome the fear inside
you.
