Analysis of More than hope
Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)
When I can no longer cope
Your perfect words
bring back my scope
I love you more than I can hope
You break free my hands
From the ropes
On magical a journey
from a horoscope
We share together
Our hearts elope
To climb higher
than any slope
As we make our home
Within this globe
I garnish you with flowers
Like a robe
And decorate
Your cute ear lobes
Our light shines
brighter than any strobe
You are the one
that makes me whole
