Hope - Pencil & ink. Hope can be a haven, hiding in your heart Looking up and waiting, for the clouds to part Even when the world is driven to despair Somebody will seek, the hope that’s surely there Hope gilded gladiators as they girded up their loins Metal detectors as they search for ancient coins The jockeys and the jumpers at the start of the race Astronauts first feelings, looking down from outer space Hope was found hiding in ships holding slaves As even the fearing heard those sent to the waves And on Iwo Jima’s hill as they raised up ‘Old Glory’ The wounded and the weary, hoped to tell their story Hope is a chicken heeding a Harrier in the sky In the shepherds voice as he tells his dog ‘come-bye’ As the batsman watches his ball soar towards the boundary That the bell will ring true as it’s poured within the foundry Hope was forlorn, a wartime sky threatened rain Which would wash his blackened hair when he left the train And the search for an aviatrix lost in the Pacific That the politicians words would be much more specific Hope lived in our forbearers as the Human Race they mixed On a million documents signed, as each ‘Peace’ was fixed Found around campfires around which pipes were passed All hoping that this treaty would be the one to last Hope is in the scientist, testing each vaccine And in the teenager, waging war through a screen The carers in the hospitals, the carers in the home The workers and the troubled, all yearning to roam So let’s hope against hope that hope will win through We will sit by quiet streams, in a friendship that is true Only see each other’s beauty, as in our own ways we cope Because in this wearied worried
