HOPE
© Shelley Hansen 2015
The gift of optimism is a blessing quite unique.
It saves us from the dark side, regulates the words we speak.
It's not just free and easy - it is tempered by good sense -
but shows up in our attitude to personal events.
It's true we suffer setbacks, and we walk the path of pain
when time goes by so slowly. Will we ever smile again?
but somewhere deep within us something dwells, to help us cope -
a quality we can't constrain ... we like to call it HOPE!
