SIR HOPE

Author: godsprincess

She started out young with hope in her heart
Of a forever love that would never part
Spinning dreams of a great white Knight
Riding in to her rescue making everything alright

He was perfect in every way
Gallantly granting her wishes everyday
Thus they would live happily ever after
In that Golden Dream World forever

But then one by one the years went by
With her dreams slowly vaporizing with a sigh
Her dreams took on a different view
As the real world started intruding through

Her great White Knight slowly faded away
To be replaced with the realities of the day
Her Knight may not come to rescue her today
But her hopes for the dream of forever do not sway

About this poem:

Like every little girl I dreamed of my Knight in shining armor would come and sweep me off my feet.

I think most of us are in a dream land like this when we are young, I learned the hard way ,there is no knight in shinning armor.

Hello Kathy, You write with that lovely air of innocence, Oh the dreams that we set our heart upon are vanished and anon, c'est la vie;

Thank you dear Twazzle! However, he better build up his muscles to sweep me off my feet

Or I need to go on a crash diet! Thank you so much for your kind remarks!

Puppylove: I'm sorry you were learned the hard way. However, I still hold out Hope for a true love. Naive I know, but I want to be optimistic about it. Thanks for your visit and for caring. I hope you too will find someone who will love you as a true Knight should.

Thank you Phil. In a way I'm am quite innocent even though I have lived 65 years. I have always been a dreamer as I have 2 older brothers who didn't want to play with a sister and no girls in the neighborhood, so I read a lot and dreamed a lot (back then we used our imagination a lot). Thanks for reading and your encouraging comments.

Mick: That's me - half dreamer and half realist. I love to go off into daydreams (carryover from childhood) but I had a mother who was very much a realist. Thus, I do know the difference.

Thank you for your kind compliments and encouragement.

Kathy - I have always been a dreamer every since I can remember. I love to bury myself in fictional romance books and dream. Maybe that is bad in a way because maybe I expect too much. But I continue to dream on. Thanks for stopping by and your wonderful comment.

Ahh Shadow - thank you. I love hugs!

If I can give someone a warm feeling with my poems and inspire them to hug someone, that would be great!

Thanks for reading and your very kind comment.

Thank you Bill. Without Hope, the world would be a dark place in deed. But I myself am looking for an Angel at the end of my journey angel2
