Analysis of Hope Personified

Steve Cochrane 1955 (Cape)



I "hear" your words in what you do;
Much louder than a voice.
Your light shines warmth and brightly through
In all you do by choice.

You give so many hope each day
With courage, smiles, and truth!
Your grace will never fade away;
Much love inside your youth!
