A wishing well,
for shattered dreams,
brings hope with just
a wish and a coin.

At a slow pace, she
walks to the well
of hope, with just
one penny she scoops
out of her worn
coat.

A bit of hope
if only for a moment
as she tosses the
coin and a reflection
of a smile stares
back at her.

This is one of the best I've read of yours, and that is saying something, for your poetry is always so good.

Wishes can come true, it can happen to you . . . Oh, sorry, those lines belong in a song.

They are true nevertheless.

Where there's hope, there's a way. Unfortunately not always. Great imagery in this poem.
