Hopes are the foundations of the castles we build
Sometimes in the
air and other times in real
A ray of hope brings joy even in face of surreal
Hope is
the last straw we like to cling on
When all is lost, dark, haplessness descends
We ride on hope to pull us out from quagmire
Hoping against all hopes when the danger is real

Hope keeps one going. As you have said either castles in air or real, does not matter.
ReplyDeleteTo a sinking man a floating straw is the hope. No, not that it has enough strength to support you, but it may teach you enough that you learn to remain afloat.
Good one !!
