A Prayer of Hope opens with a poetic elegy reflecting on the loss of a loved one, while the narrative style poem of “Freedom Land” presents the desires of those who willingly risked their lives to leave country and family to search out possibilities ensuring freedom from tyrannical controls.  In the poem “Right Things,” an acrostic style presents the phrase ‘Jesus Christ Our Savior’ using the first letter of each line.  The theme poem “A Prayer of Hope” expresses how confusion inundate the mind when goals are unattainable and hope acquiring desires of the heart is lost.
 
A Prayer of Hope combines numerous poetic rhymes and free verses to express personal, social, and spiritual insight into the writer’s thoughts and experiences.  Most poems in the book are proceeded by scriptural verses for thoughtful meditations on biblical precepts.  Insightful Bible verses can enlighten the soul and heighten understanding of biblical messages such as the poetic metaphorical verse, “Your word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path” (Psalms 119:105).  
 
As poetry is an outward rhythmic communication of the innermost thoughts of the soul, A Prayer of Hope conveys poetic perspectives and sentiments of circumstances to highlight the impact that life’s situations have in constructing thoughts of the mind to acquire opinions and express emotions.  Each poem is written with the intent that those who read or hear gain insight and understanding into reflective messages of Godly encouragements and contemplations of transforming personal and societal events.
