Hope is a thing with feathers

Hope is a thing with feathers

They stem from your beating heart

They display the colours of your soul

They give you the freedom to start

 

Hope is a thing with feathers

They grow from under your skin

They only work when you’re ready

For your life journey to truly begin

 

Hope is a thing with feathers

They work best on a trip for two

They let you fly side by side

The destination is up to you

 

Hope is a thing with feathers

They let you fly against the wind

They never question your will for flight

Nor if you the sinner or been sinned

 

Hope is a thing with feathers

They glow and glisten in the sun

They flap and take you all the way home

When you thought it best to run

 

Hope is a thing with feathers

Belief is the wings that flap

Love is the sweet call from your beak

Joy sets you free from the gravity trap

 

Hope is a thing with feathers

They need to be maintained

They cannot deliver on your dreams

When they are broken or tearstained

 

Hope is a thing with feathers

They soar on laughter, love and light

They will fly you through the darkest days

For Hope’s future is always bright
