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 much in here and things happen for ones good even if its bad one must learn from the bad and not fixate on it or you will grow upset take it as it is and move on even if its tough great little write here

Ok, so i admit i am not a natural at this attitude, but i love this poem. Very hope-filled and uplifting. And the idea of working harder and "buckling up" for the ride ahead is visually inspiring. Not too sure about the final line in terms of it rhyming with mood, but i like the words. Overall, a great message and it did make me think, so thanks!
