Men of Hope

An Inspirational and Uplifting Poem EVERY DAY from Simon J. Halliday!

Men of Hope

What the world won't always see

Is pain lives on in you and me

It's sometimes hidden and not all wrong

But can it help to set us free?

I don't know if the answer's clear

But every day some hope is near

You may just blink and miss the truth

So stay awake, avoiding fear

The world will change once more, again

In every land, in city and glen

It may be slow but have no doubt

The question is how, it's never when

For deep within each human soul

A quiet hope waits for its goal

And some day every one will act

For good or ill, a different role

Don't be afraid of anything new

It may beg questions - what to do?

Yet sometimes taking time is best

For more will change before you're through

We're each alone yet all is one

And one day all of this is gone

So men of hope - stand up for good

Then smile in peace, your light once shone
