“Himalayan Sonneteer Sonnet 16

Hope is nature's defibrillator that,
Electrifies the heart to unsubmission.
Hope rescues us from the depths of despair,
Hope drags the being even out of cremation.

Hope lights the way when clouds convene,
Hope brings sight when smog sets in.
Hope is the bird that heralds the dawn,
Hope is the answer to all things disheartening.

Never let intellect trod on the sapling of hope,
When things get rough intellect is first to scarper.
The brain needs backbone to trudge through hardship,
Without hope, backbone is first to lose its caper.

But again, most times inaction sets in, disguised as hope.
Real hope sets you on fire, it doesn't make you mellow.”

“I hoped for a rose and got lilies.
I hoped for the sun and got rain.
I hoped for a cat and got puppies.
I hoped for Brazil and got Spain.

I hoped for a raise and got transferred.
I hoped for northwest and got south.
I hoped for ice cream and got yogurt.
I hoped for a kiss on the mouth.

I hoped for more time and got late fees.
I hoped for a cruise, got a flight.
I hoped for Poseidon, got Hades.
I hoped for long days over nights.

You may wonder why I keep hoping,
As fruitless as it seems to be.
But hope is a bow, not an arrow.
Its release depends much upon me.”

“Hope is to fly with wings.
It is a sword against the unpredictable,
A bridge that traverses despairs.

Hope is to leap with springs.
It is a helmet to guard the vulnerable,
A barge that floats o’er anxious cares.

Hope is to spar with kings.
It is a shield against the uncontrollable,
A hedge that fences in nightmares.”
