WQWWC :: Hope

Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul and sings the tune without the words and never stops at all.

Emily Dickinson

Joining Marsha’s Writer’s Quotes Wednesdays Writer’s Challenge. The theme this week is HOPE.

Well, this word always brings me back to one of my favorite poems of Emily Dickinson. Hope is the thing with feathers …

Here is my version of Hope! I hope you enjoy 😉 

Expectation
Desire
Believing in the magic
The impossible turning into possible 
The only tool to keep us going
When nothing else makes sense
A wish
A silent prayer
The soul talking to the mind

  5. Elizabeth, I’m so sorry to be slow to respond. I don’t always get the pingback notifications. I always go back and check before I publish my next post so that I’m sure I don’t miss anyone. It helps to leave your link in a comment as well. That said, I love your poem and the quote you chose. I had never thought of the “soul talking to the mind.” That’s a beautiful way of putting it. It sounds like your poem inspired your readers to have hope when they needed it. What more can you “hope” for from a post! 🙂 Thanks again for participating. I hope you will again. I won’t be so slow next time! 🙂
