Hope By Paul Wilson Roads traveled thru life long and far They have brought you to where you are Hope is always your guiding star You’ve shared so much over the years All the joy and all of your tears Hope has helped you conquer your fears Together your love remains strong Time spent apart always too long Hope will always be your love song Each day a memory to keep Life’s greatest rewards you will reap Hope will dry the tears that you weep Sharing all of your plans and dreams Together you will cross life’s streams Hope lighting your way like moon beams Hope will walk with you down memories lane Hope will always be near to ease your pain Hope in your heart will forever remain Hope and friends come together in your refrain "To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you" [This message has been edited by Paul Wilson (02-18-2003 04:15 AM).] |

Paul, that is a very distinguised photo! You definitely look the part of a poet! This "H" word leads to another "H" word--happy! Wonderfully up-lifting poem! Warm hugs, Linda |

Yeah, hope's all that. It can be a real nice thing to have, even if it's a bit wobbly at times. Nicely scribed, Mr. Wilson. Parasite "Faith" means the will to avoid knowing what is true. |

That's an intertesting structure, Paul. I like it. I like the message, too. It's very appropriate in these times. |

Paul, I stopped in briefly this morning and your poem was the first one I read. Your words have helped changed my whole perspective and I shall carry them with me as I head off shortly to the doctors to get all my test results. " ... Hope will dry the tears that you weep ..." God sent me an angel this morning and his name is Paul Wilson. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Huggles, Marti |

Personally, I really think this poem goes way beyond just being in a book... To me, this poem has the appearance and has the wording of those classic poems that people hang in their homes to look at time and time again to gain motivation and encouragement. We all need, so very much, to be reminded about having "Hope" each day that we live. (Amen) Thank you for sharing your poem and for requesting that it be placed in the book. I think that it will make a wonderful addition. God Bless. -Bob |

Bob... Your kind words have amazed me. For you too think that it belongs in peoples homes to remind them of motivation and encouragement is more praise than I deserve. I really thank you sir for all you have said. Bless you...Paul "To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you" |

Well stated, Paul. Yes, all of the roads we have taken have brought us to where we are and, although some of the roads may have been rough to travel, if we like where we are now, it was all worth it. Keep the faith.... |
