If hope were wings, how many of us would be walking?
If hope were shoes, how many would be barefoot?
If hope were hair, how many would be bald?
If hope was sight, how many would be blind?

If hope was peace, how many would be at war?
If only those who hoped could see hope, how many would see hope then?
