"HOPE"

"Hope" is the thing with feathers --
That perches in the soul --
And sings the tune without the words --
And never stops - at all--
And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard --
And sore must be the storm --
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm --

I've heard it in the chillest land --
And on the strangest Sea --
Yet, never, in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of Me.

by Emily Dickinson, 1861
