Hope is...

Author: Amanda Cook
Year: Hope

Hope is the glow of the hot sun,

The first breath of a baby's life that's just begun.

Hope is that belly laugh when you're having so much fun,

Like the day you realise you've found the one

Your partner, your Mr Perfect,

All your life its been so hectic,

Brand new start, just like being resurrected.

A new day, a new beginning

At this part of life you are winning

Gone are all those days of endless sinning

No one is perfect no one is flawless

Go on girl you've got this

Hope is the smell of fresh coffee in the morning,

A brand new day forever dawning

Hope comes in all shapes and sizes,

A wonderful chance full of so many surprises.

Never lose hope, hold onto it strong,

No more dwelling on where you went wrong.

The past is the past leave it as history,

Follow hope into a new mystery.
