April 24: Story Challenge in 99-words – Hope

Hope is the force that keeps us trying

It is a soothing guide that gives colour

A hidden mission to prove our own valour

Gives us all the luck and love so undying

Hope is light as a feather and keeps us flying

Not just seven, but makes life multicolour

Hope is the force that keeps us trying

It is a soothing guide that gives colour

Hope is a label we like applying

Perhaps a miracle to cure our pallor

Like watching telly in technicolour

Between joy or grief we’re vying

Hope is the force that keeps us trying*
