What Gives Me Hope?
What Gives Me Hope?
In the night’s embrace
There is silence
A silence that was not heavy
But as light as the break of dawn.
What Gives Me Hope?
The disclosure of the creator
And His love and affection
In His spiritual direction
Reminding me that life
Is not a game
But hope,
That should be preserved
As a seed of faith.
What Gives Me Hope?
The generosity of a stranger’s touch
An act of compassion
A genuine compliment
A momentary positive discussion.
What Gives Me Hope?
Children’s laughter when at play
Their joy, full of spark
That lights a flame.
What Gives Me Hope?
A woman’s innocence or intuition
Which pulled me back
To the fact that life is good
What Gives Me Hope?
That one flower
