Hope

Hope is that belief

we cling to

whether we walk in joy or grief

it is ever present in me and you

Whether you own up to it or not

even the most jaded

turns to it for it is something we have all got

Hoping for better is always clear, present and never faded

It is a light that shines bright

in darkest of times

it is an anchor that secures us upright

it sees us through so many dangerous waves where nothing has reasons nor rhymes

We are rooted in hope

it runs through our veins

It allows us to cope

through all of our pains

We hold hope for peace

We hold hope for health

We hold hope for a better world

We hold hope for all to find their place at the table.
