Hope is a word festooned with slivers of sunlight and visions
Of all that enthrall and calm us even in the
Caverns of our deepest fears.
Hope helps us dismiss those hours that devoured good
Intentions and memories of failures
That lure us into despair.
Hope is a pool of reflection afloat with flowers of luminous
Green and glorious dreams that once belonged
To each of us.
Hope is a gentle slope rising to where the air is laden with balm for the
Bereaved, the tired. For those searching for That
Which Could Never Be, hopelessness.

So beautifully expressed and inspirational. Yes - Hope always :)
