Analysis of Hope to live victoriously
A beautiful tender plant began to creep,
I observed it's spirit to grow and reap.
It's roots are fixed and buried so deep,
It knows only to progress and to leap.
With joy of hope I started to weep,
to make sure all my duties to keep.
To complete every task with out my sleep,
then...I can run all my life victoriously.
