Hope calls

For Frankie, Huddy, Lola, Harvey, Smokie…

Hope calls
across the road
from the shadows

My name
just audible over
the morning traffic
Single syllable
amidst commuting cars

Standing
in the light
I look across

Hope visible

I call back
Hope waves
from the shade

Walking
into the day
into the life
ahead
