That Four Lettered Word - WordPromptChallenge

One syllable and four letters

It's a simple word holds this world

Enchanted, sometimes

Baffled, at others-

They just can't get enough of it.

It's in every smile and every cheer

And every kind gesture there is

Still there's those

Who can't see it

And seek it at every turn

Then there's those who've broken away

And decided it doesn't exist

But there's also those

Of that special sort

Who pump it out by the gallons

Gurus and artists and preachers and prophets

All teach to seek it out

It's all around

In every shape

Just waiting to be held:

In a ray of sunshine or a drop of dew

Sometimes obvious, sometimes obscure

A gentle touch

A cooling breeze

They've all got some of it

It's the stuff that poets' words

Are often centered around

A simple word

Without which this world

Might just cease to exist

One syllable, four letters

Love?

Nah

Even better-

Hope
