HOPE






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

--- by Emily Dickenson

This poem has sustained and strengthened me in weak and tired moments. When I feel discouraged and am apt to become pessimistic, I fall back on hope. I lean on the hope that things will change where needed, and that life will be better for those in despair.
