here I am
waiting for the world
waiting for the thought that will inspire
waiting for that chance to change others
that I know will never come
yet I still do not get
why I am still waiting?
why does the caged bird sing?
why does the dove try to fly
when it knows it has a broken wing?
I was prepaired to travel the world for the answers
but then I found it right next door
when the little boy across the street
said something that slowed me down
he said that he knew the answer
to those many strange questions
I laughed at the boy then
for he was only six
how could he know the answer
when I did not?
But he gave his word
so I sat down impatiantly
while he began
to tell me that I had it wrong
to tell me what I had been looking for
had been there all along
he said it could not be wrapped
and given in a Christmas box
and that it was great and powerful
and filled with lots of joy
so I sat up and listned hard
but what he said next
was so simple and bold
that I knew he was right
that if you didnt know already
it was hope
hope that made the broken dove fly
and the caged bird sing
hope that had brought me hear
and hope will always be.
I HOPE you all enjoyed this poem!!! heart
