HOPE
Hope comes in many colors, many reasons
It can come as a tiny spark of light in darkness
It can come softly as the falling rain
It can come when we are not even aware
Hope is a necessity of life for each of us
It is what we hold onto when the rope breaks
It is the cry of a sick child on a dark night
It is a mother's prayer for her family
Hope can be fragile or strong and unmoving
It can be as a raging stream or a gentle lake
It can float on the delicate wings of a butterfly
It can lodge within a heart and warm the soul
Hope, it is what keeps us going, keeps us believing
Life would not be bearable without it
It is the look of trust in a child's eyes
Hope, is the heart of us all.
For Gabrielle, keeping hope alive.
