All that is uncertain beneath our feet,
all that we assume is bedrock—
an unshakeable foundation—
is really hope,
nebulous, alluring, beguiling hope.
Hope that somewhere in all the wrong
there is right,
in all that is terrifying
there is a moment of peace,
that the possibility of beauty
lies in every eye that beholds.

Amen. Hope is a firm foundation! I've missed your writing!
True of most things for sure. And important to remember, these days. Your words always inspire, Pauline. Thanks for that.
A beautiful poem. Thank you! I prefer optimism over despair.
