Hope
Hope is a sparrow on the deck ledge,
Praying her chicks will fly off the edge.
Hope is an old cat in an animal rescue,
Longing for a compassionate person like you.
Hope is a child wishing for some friends,
Once the game of freeze tag ends.
Hope is a poor man on the street
With a desire to hear a song so upbeat.
Hope is what most people want and gain,
Even through trial and storm and rain.
Hope.
With hope, faith, prayer, and determination, I convinced my family to get a dog. It took a lot of work, but I did it. But only with the help of God.
