Hope

5/9/2020

Comments

 
"What is hope?"
The little girl asked,
trying hard not to mope
as we wait for dusk.


I said, hope is this:
Waiting for our fathers
return from the war;
And be the bearers
of their honorable scars.


Hope is believing
in the nation's strength;
Asking and praying
to save the lives of our men.


Hope is waiting
for the rain to stop,
And see the bright sun
from the mountaintop.
