Hope

Fate’s gate: I wander
Beneath bright night skies
Of faith, a reprise
To defy sonder
This moment: ponder
Life’s certain demise
Leads my soul to rise
In what lies yonder

Remember me for faster sign in

Now, take me away
Through time, and beyond
Free from flesh’s bond
I seek no longer
A reason to stay
Dawn’s light grows stronger

This half-width Petrarchan sonnet is part of the Out of Site, Out of Minds collaboration on Chalkboard. (No, I did not just call myself a halfwit.)
