Dove

Hope Chest

Inquisitive and innocent

she asked her Mother

\"Where you do find Love?\"

 

My Dear, love is in my Hope Chest waiting to be found,

so the little girl searched for it here and there, and all around

She looked for it in her Mother\'s dresser, and behind every door

She searched every corner, and under the rug on the floor

She became exhausted and decided to look for it another time

Her Mother\'s Hope Chest was just too hard to find

 

The next day she searched all around her mother\'s garden

\"Have you seen a Hope Chest?\"the gardener replied \"I Beg your Pardon?\"

So She she looked in the garage to search where it could be

But all that she found inside was a spider and a honey bee

 

Finally she asked her mother \" Is this some type of test?\'

\"Why can\'t I find it? Can you tell me where is your Hope Chest?\"

\"Silly Girl, my Hope Chest is deep inside of me\"

I keep it here in hopes of setting my Love free\"

\"Why do you call it your Hope Chest\" she asked with pride

I call it my Hope Chest because my love is locked inside\"

We all humans Hope to love and be loved in return you see

The trick is to find the right person who holds the key

 

\" I love you Mother, and I have the key to your heart\"

She Unlocked her Hope Chest and said\" I love you too sweetheart\"
