Hope!

A poem about hope, but about time too.

Where do you keep all your hopes?

Carry it on that fancy backpack?

Or stuff it in a plastic bag and-

let it flow in the mighty river of time?

The past is a dead reflection.

And the future hides behind-

the thick fog of time,

fading into reality just like-

a dream does when you open your eyes.

This moment is all there is.

We own nothing but this loaf of time!

Hope and time read in a good compact......Agreed to you - all we have is just here....grab it nor mourn at regrets!! That's gonna be not alright...and if you care bout future..,that's good...but for that you must fix this moment...cause future will be this moment one day!

Many moments pass and we slip inside ourselves without seeing, hope is in the center of the soul its all that keeps one going. Moving forward into life. Nicely expressed ;-]

I am a firm believer of your main point here, which is to live in the moment. Many messages try to tell people this, but your message says it in an original & unexpected way, which I like. I love how you pick unusual words like “loaf” of time . . . these are the ways to make your writing uninhibited & inviting (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
