A Monument Of Hope Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Don't look for hope outside the substance of being
Hope is a dimensionless entity
That only exist in the dimensionless realm of the spirit
Hope does not ask for any knowledge or qualification
Not even the status in life
Whether poor or rich, educated or uneducated
Regardless of location and distance
Hope is available to all
But it's only through the path of Light (spirit)
That you can truly submerge yourself in hope
The monument of hope is not a monument
Don't erect a stature in your backyard
And pray to it
Don't seek after false prophets
And listen to their soothing words
The monument of hope is within you
Find your true self
And without any application of reason or logic
Submerge yourself in Silence
Not the absence of noise
But the stillness of body, mind and soul
Erase all thoughts and emotions
Let the spirit lead you into the chamber of secrets
Here, you will find yourself in a dimensionless realm
Don't look for sign posts or billboards
Just embrace the moment
And stay there for a while
This is the monument of hope
A moment of peace
