Here’s hoping for a quiet place to shelter from life’s storms,
A haven, safe, in which I can take rest and just relax.
I’m hoping for the time to sit in a peaceful corner, warm,
with not a care, and no more fear of possible attacks.
***
Here’s hoping for a sudden win to make me feel secure
in my ability to meet the costs of daily life.
It doesn’t have to be a lot, just enough to be assured
I never will again be battered with financial strife.
***
Here’s hoping for a loving hand to smooth my weary brow,
To ease away all stresses and caress my care-worn face.
I wish that you and I could bask in that sweet moment now,
and hope ere long I’ll be with you, there warm in your embrace.
