No Signs Or Footprints...


April 6, 2012
Written for Haiku Heights
April Challenge..
 
 

Prompt : HOPE
 
No Signs Or Footprints...
 
 
 
Hope presents herself
carrying bundles of dreams;
no signs or footprints

No signs or footprints
ah, she was hiding behind
curtains of self-doubt

Curtains of self-doubt
get pulled by happy times;
I feel confident

I feel confident
as I take a step forward;
Sun kisses my brow

Sun kisses my brow
I let it enter my heart;
hope presents herself

RS:)
