Hope is the Essence

The following came about when I was writing a blogpost on hope, lottery and winning.  I noticed I could not help speaking in short lines so I just lived it up and wrote this. Actually my first poem.

Hope is the Essence

Giddy with hope
I said I will win
That 1.6 billion
Oh yeah, I will
Darn the odds
What odds
Worse than being struck by lightning
Who cares
I am happy
I have hope
For something good is coming
It will
The world is dark
I need this moment.
