A poem about hope, seeing the tenderness in humanity and having the courage to look into a bright future. For more healing energy, see my gratitude series.
It’s the small green leaf
That twirls in the air
Then rests on the floor
Reminds us spring is upon
It’s the little bird
On the edge of the river
Afraid of the dark water
Yet inches its foot in
It’s a phone call
When we’re feeling low
A warm voice and a loud laugh
Fills our soul and revives
It’s the resilience
When all feels broken
Gathers the pieces to create
A kinder stronger reality
Never have we seen
A more trying calamity
Yet I’ve witnessed hearts
Expand on the edge of humanity
This was inspired by Emily Dickinson’s poem, Hope.
