Hope is children looking for sweets
In the pocket of a favorite uncle or aunt

Hope is a puppy looking for food anything even a crumb
But also yearning for the pat or belly rub

Hope is looking out the window at three days rain
Longing to see the sun again

Hope is looking for the cheque to come
When the cupboards are looking run down

Hope is walking when it pains to stand
And you still can dream of a far away land

Hope is knowing love will come
Don't ever just put yourself down

Hope is in growing... loving... meeting, needing and doing
Keep hope, don't let it die.
