HOPE NOTE #7: Hope grows.

When

I choose

to stop

and see

tiny intricacies

in a flower

and find

mystery

Hope grows.

When I feel

the warmth

of a child

resting against my chest

I see eyes

that sparkle

with eternity

Hope grows.

When I breathe deep

especially

around mountains

and trees

in the middle of green

while seconds tick into silence

Hope grows.

I lose track

when I go too fast,

But

when

I

slow

and

seek

Hope grows.

What makes your hope grow?
