my hope

my hope is wrapped in sunshine

then tied up with a shadow

my rhythm is sweeter

when dressed in a cape of hope

my footsteps are the metronome

syncopated perfectly to my inner rhythm

my patience is like a flower

blooming in the bright sunshine

today it all came together

in one perfect package

Wonderful dance of words dear Lydia.

I adored the above lines. I do need a warm day in Michigan. Old winter is holding on. Thank you dear friend for sharing the amazing poetry.

Sorry your winter is not leaving as it should by now. We are so fortunate to live in South Florida. It is 80 degrees today! Thank you for your review, John. Lydi**

Been awhile since I have had one of those days when it "all came together" and I think you described that happening in a great way. ~Jim

Well Lydi... Thank you. Youve just summed up hope. And as i am going through a bit of a dry spell, writing wise, i can happily lay claim to the fact you have summed that up so wonderfully with that sun coated honey coated goodness, so i can stop pushing that and move on to another thought... whivh im sure will be slong any time (drat, missed it!)
It would have helped if my pen didnt give up near the end, leaving me trying to write an inspirational piece about hop.
Im not sayong it will be, but dont be surprised if my next write is called Hoppity Boppity and friends!! 😊

[Lydia Shutter]

Hoppity Boppity would be a good name for an Easter poem! Hey, when my ship came in, I was at the airport so don't despair! Glad you enjoyed the write, Lorry....next time I won't write about your thoughts! :) Lydi**

Promise and pinky swear then its a deal! 😊
