HOPE

HOPE is a short poem which tells us to never lose faith whatsoever because god always has something planned for us.

When dreams are shattered,

When you feel all is lost,

Don't feel dejected,

Don't lose hope at any cost.

Life is not a bed of roses,

It has its ups and downs.

We should learn to accept failures,

And not meet them with frowns.

So what if you have not achieved,

What was to be your aim.

There is no need to feel sorry,

There is no need to feel shame.

Man writes his own destiny,

So don't lose hope as yet.

Come on! Buckle up and work harder,

Dont sit there and fret.

If things don't turn out the way you want,

Don't let that spoil your mood,

Because you must remember one thing :

WHATEVER HAPPENS, HAPPENS FOR YOUR GOOD!

I agree with you completely! The cliche that I've always heard and sadly used myself was "life will never be easy," it speaks for itself. Now on the structure of it, you had a great rhyme scheme of ABCB and then in the last stanza I understand that the content of it was still very poetic and expressive of your emotions. It seems that you knew just what you wanted to say in that last stanza and were excited to write it down; if so, I would advise to write down what first comes to mind and then later go back and try to keep it with the same rhyme scheme. Otherwise, it was a very convincing poem and I really enjoyed reading this.

While I'm agnostic, I can understand how faith can help people through adversity. There really is no use railing about something you can't change. All you can do is strive to make things better and keep a positive outlook. Inspirational poem.

I absolutely agree with this view!

Emily Dickinson wrote that Hope is the thing with feathers . . . no matter how you write it, it's still beautiful

Talk about uplifting...I like the message behind this poem, just what you need after taking a double whammy from life. Thank you for sharing this, and do keep writing.

wow! amazing poem
in fact there are no words to describe it
we all come across to some situations when we feel that we lost it but at that time we have to "buckle up and work harder"
this is a great inspiration to cheer up the person who has lost all hope
Keep writing!
