2 little verses of a poem called Hope

its magic and its free
its not a prescription
its not in an iv.
do you know what hope is?
its reaching past today
its dreaming of tomorrow
its trying a new way.

Thanks AMD66 just the words needed xxx

Great verse and so true x

And one of my all-time favourites - carried this with me to my first results appointment.

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all,

And sweetest in the gale is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.

I’ve heard it in the chillest land
And on the strangest sea;
Yet, never, in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.

Emily Dickinson

this is the other verses but i liked the 2 above.
It punctuates laughter
It sparkles in our tears,
It simmers under sorrows,
And dissipates our fears.

It’s pushing past impossible
It’s pounding on the door,
It’s questioning the Answers,
It’s always seeking more.

It’s rumors of a breakthrough,
It’s whispers of a cure,
A roller coaster ride
Of remedies, unsure.

Do you know what Hope is?
It’s candy for the soul,
It’s perfume for the spirit,
To share it, makes you Whole.
