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.

I agree. It's nothing more than the truth.

I agree totally with you. Hope pushes us along. It drags us along, at times, when our feet are rooted to the grim sands of helplessness. It takes a fair bit of hope to actually get us up and going though.

I like the simplistic method you've employed to convey your views. A very traditional rhyme scheme adds to the simplicity and the eloquence. It reminds me of the poem "The man who wins is the man who thinks he can"

Love it!

Nice poem :) I too believe in the same philosophy and this is something which keeps me going no matter what I face in Life! I still think you could have expressed this in a better way though this too is good...
Keep it up! :)

I agree 100%! This poem reminds me of a poem I wrote myself about hope. This was great nice job.

I agree that if you are loved people will look after you. I too think that working hard toward something is the best idea.

i am completely anti to the views depicted in this work of yours .. given a particular context i somehow kept my hope alive but in the end it proved to be a farce ..

as for the write really it can help someone to cope ..
