SENSE OF HOPE
I tasted hope today. It was the plop plop of a bright blueberry falling into my breakfast bowl, one among a thousand. Could there be enough bright blueberries to feed the world?
I smelled hope today. It was the tang of freshly sawed wood that called to me as I passed. Will this construction be a home for someone?
I heard hope today. It blue air on my face when it screeched to a halt and opened its door to beckon me on board. Could I actually be looking forward to starting the work week?
Hope touched me. When my key ground in the lock it shouted, “Start working. You’re back from holidays. Will you be a better hope lady now that you are refreshed?”
I saw hope today, and squinted in the glowing flash of an unquestioningly heart-felt hello.
