Scratch around for hope. It’s there to be found – in the starry roof of night, in the fertile floor of ground. Scratch around for hope. It may be nearer than you think – a phone to, or from, a friend, a drink from the kitchen sink. Scratch around for hope. It’s mind boggling, I know but even when you’re b1ue, someone’s hope may lie in you!
