Part IV - Hope

8 2 5
                                    

I see the road that winding distance, 
Time the measure to traverse, 
The price we pay is but a pittance,  
Though the complaints are terse.

They beg and plead,

They cry and whine, 

Their only pleasure the mead, 

Wanting to take what's mine.

I growl, 

An animalistic urge, 
I prowl, 

Onwards I must surge.

I seek that meadow oft, 
That place of rest, 

Meadow grass so soft, 

Where Hope replenishes the best.
