Hope
The heart — now

wounded by a sudden

unbelievable loss,

waits for something to

Light up the abyss —

A tiny hope

For the tides to turn.

~ The year 2020 has brought a lot of sorrow to so many of us, and just when I was hoping that there are only a few days left for this ordeal of a year to be over, an irreparable loss stormed in and made me realize that my life, here onwards, will never be the same again. Still, Kathy’s incredibly timely prompt makes me hold on to that hope of the advent of good times.

~Many thanks to Kathy Jacobs, Harper Thorpe, and the entire Chalkboard team.
