This is such a stunning piece of poetry! Clap, clap, clap. Love the personified Hope, and the flow of the poem and the storyline. Such a cool idea that Hope is still resilient after breaking and bleeding so much. Really illustrates how hope can never really die. "Hope has just lost everything / But she has a lantern / A flickering candle behind grimy glass screens." Love these lines and they perfectly encapsulate hope in today's society. :)
Omg! I love this poem so much. Such nice symbolism and the metaphor! "and I was losing my feathers with ever-growing failure to clasp onto what kept me afloat. / So I drowned." SO BEAUTIFUL :)
Thank you! That means so much. Mary Oliver is probably my favorite Poet!
