I was recently inspired by consultant Marcus Child to “choose hope” (and CW Metcalfe’s ideas of grace under pressure), I think about how we do this when facing bad news,
Head booms,
News looms,
Wait rooms,
Bleach fumes,
Choose hope…
Heart thumps,
Tit lumps,
Tired grumps,
Wish jumps,
Choose hope…
Scalp bare,
Not fair,
Faint prayer
Still there,
Choose hope…
