Hope searches

strewn on the icy plateau
winds howling to the sky

watching tattered pieces
drifting to the four corners

hope searches the horizon
seeking the mender of broken hearts

      I could probably fill a library of books, full of numbers for the mender of broken hearts. J

    I love it. Extremely well written, I would love to see a longer take on this. The last stanza is by far the best.
