The world holds

The highest

Of hopes

Today

That the world

With every step

We think

Of time

To make of the whole

Hope

The time we had

We made the most

The world we saw

We said a toast

To the hope of

A better

World

In today

In the moments

We live

For now

And forever

It only takes a moment

Of notice

To make the move of lifetime

So take it the way you can

And get what you should

In a time

That is running out

For all of us on a finite journey

I learn the language of hope

So I can say

Take the moment we have

And make it yours

It was a gripping

Idea

With no course of completion

But it moved my heart to sing

In a moment of despair

So I hold that hope

Like a dove

In my hands

Tried and true

Tender is the time

That I begin

Again

In the start of any

Journey

Is life

The doubts

The trials

The crying

And the fears

Amidst all of this

It’s not enough

To stop

Trying

It’s a blink

Or a heartbeat

A moment

A second in time

Frozen

In history

As it happens

Over and over

So don’t wait for

Another second

To

Pass by

The foundation of life

On this planet

No matter where you grab it

Is the nutrition

Of vitality and a spring of abundance

I tap into this with some

Reservation

That I am not as good as

The next man

But I hope this nutrition

Can give me peace
