Hope

As I walk along, the sandy soil of turquoise waters, 

Colony of gulls pecking the brine for feed. 

I marvel at the nature’s bounty, 

signifying for eternity, the gift of abundance. 

A bottle I procure, nestled is, a scroll within, 

Brought to the surface by dolphins and otters. 

I wrote my heart’s desires and offered it back, 

all material pleasures, now a redundance. 

For nature, the ultimate wealth, never falters, 

It transforms your journey and destination. 

Filling your life with abundance, nature saunters, 

It’s worth living in nature’s county. 

In the scroll, is a word, I wish never alters, 

‘HOPE’, it is, the key to living a life jaunty.
