The Optimist
There was a man who was full of Hope
The people around him could not Cope
He had a good heart
And was very smart
The good old man who was full of Hope!

Dear Ranu,
I like this poem about this “good old man who was full of Hope.” A good heart *and* full of hope! 🙂

Dear Robert,
Thank you so much for your comment. 🙂
Lovely! It’s true people don’t appreciate those who are hopeful.
Thank you so much Sonya for your comment. 🙂
Hopeful people are smart and have heart. A prudent point, expressed in a pleasant fashion. A friend e-mailed me yesterday to tell me it was Limerick Day. This was my reply:
Thank you for sending this to me
Somehow the day ran right through me
Maybe a test
Delivered with zest
For computer downloading a new me!
It’s a good one, publish it in Rashmi’s blog. The lady who holds the limerick challenge. 🙂
