Hope - that stays


Hope
That lasts you through
The toughest of times
Hope
That does not leave you alone
In the middle of dark creepy night
Hope
That puts the contorted today together
Building better and brighter tomorrow
Hope
That shines like a golden ray
In the hours of deep despair
Hope
That can you can hold on to
In the loneliest moments
Hope
That calls for last night study
From Xeroxed notes
Hope
That creates presentations
Just in nick of time saving your job
Hope
That whispers love
At every missed heart beat
Hope
When will finds its way
Hope
That stays

    Sometimes hope is all we have to hang onto, but even then, it is that small shimmer of light at the end of the tunnel.

      Exactly - shimmer of light at the end of the tunnel.

    Nicely done, Ruby! I really like this one. I am not religious (as you know) but I think that hope is more universal than just attached to religion. Hope keeps people going even when the skies are the darkest!

    Great post and my favorite line: Hope that puts the contorted today together.
    One of my all-time favorite writers, Wendell Berry, speaks about hope a lot and says that people who have given up hope or lazy or have simply stopped trying. Here's a link to a terrific video where he speaks about our need for limits. http://library.arlingtonva.us/2010/05/05/wendell-berry-at-arlington-reads-now-with-video/

Faint glimmer in heart

Ripe autumn air’s come to bless. Showering sweet November caress. We could be holding hands and walking, Silent but still talking. Faint glimmer in heart. White winters, no flowers in sight. Frosty December moonless night. And here I am hoping for your arm, To keep me safe, to keep me warm. Faint glimmer in heart. The year twenty twelve is leap they say. Oh! I can hope some more, there’s one more day. Hope for smiling summers with you, Hope for blessings to rain through. Faint glimmer in heart. Dying, not yet vanished, There’s a faint glimmer in this heart. Linking with Trifecta : Week Fifty Linking with Velvet Verbosity : 100 Words

Showstopper's Yesterday

The 12 inch heel, the confident gait, The measured steps, the sudden halt, The blush on cheeks, the smoldering eyes, The hands on hips, head held high, The silken gown, barely there, A tilt of neck, balanced well, The sultry glance, timed right, Perfect half twirl, played twice, With a graceful swirl, she turns back. The world looks on with stolen breath, Oohs, aahs, applauds, encores. The showstopper’s yesterday, Now hangs in a gallery, Fading parchment, guarded unnecessarily. No shadows of glamour come a-chasing, For vacant eyes and sagging skin, For shattering illusions, hanging questions, Am I never going back?

The pain is all gone

It wasn't the first time. And it would not be the last. She could not stand them suffering like that. She asked for his consent. He expressed his willingness in whimpering sounds. And the pain was gone – forever. Linking up with Trifecta : Trifextra - Week Nineteen
