Dancing with Hope

Do what you love. Know your own bone; gnaw at it, bury it, unearth it, and gnaw it still. - Thoreau

The change from a spent day paired with the credit card of a new tomorrow.

Trying to erase a debt of sorrow.

She waited patiently in the dead of night.

Clinging to rich, comforting, lunar light.

The darkness asked her if she wanted to dance.

 "No thank you," she replied,  "the time isn't right.

Nope, ...

... I'm waiting to be asked by hope." ...

A message of hope albeit the darkness all around us resonates to the fullest and farthest. It can compensate for so much depression and negative thinking. It gives us something to look for midst our troubles and trials. LIke fuel to the soul, we need it...
An excellent write Mr. Pete.
