Hope by Langston Hughes
So much for my inspiration and resolve to keep up with the PotD. On Friday and Saturday, it seemed like I only came home to sleep, due to various family activities. It was a no brainer to come up with a poem to post today, though. I’m listening to Richard Russo’s Bridge of Sighs audiobook and this poem was used in a high school English class.

and played it.
He edited several books and founded Modern Poetry in Foundation , a literary magazine. Poem
