Hope Springs Eternal
Having firm conviction tho the day is bleak
Optimistic of attaining the Shangri-la you seek
Prayerful expectation of a rainbow-day
Envisioning tomorrow while it’s yet today

Good optimism Chrystel. Too many people are fearful of what the future might hold.
Keith,
'Hope....where is the origin of this source?'
I had the opportunity to meet a refugee who had fled into Zambia from the DRC. Apart from her life, she had lost literally everything -including her children who were brutally slain due to so-called Ethnic-cleansing.
That woman epitomized the resilience of the human spirit: the ability to retain hope in the most hopeless of situations.
In my opinion, hope is an intrinsic human quality which lends much credibility to belief in a Creator, as opposed to the Evolution theory.
Keith, Lisa and Vautaw, I appreciate your comments, guys!
Love this one Chrystel. ??
To live in the here and now is all that exist , it's the only real we have. Everything eles is either gone or not yet to happen.
Choosing to live in the moment is all we have to live for....
I enjoyed this remarkable piece. Well done ❤
Hope springs eternal in the human breast, but where is the origin of this source? I am always confounded by this. A good poem which merits much thought.
Thank you
Keith

Hope is often all we have left. Often it's only that vision of tomorrow that gets is through today. Love this.
