Spring Hopes Eternal


Hope springs eternal

Spring hopes eternal

I always used to say the latter.  
Switching verbs and nouns, a childish remnant of old dyslexic chatter?

I kept saying it that way until  someone refutes,
that's not how you say it, you are clearly confused

So I looked it up, and read it aloud, then said to myself

Hope springs eternal
Spring hopes eternal   

Is there really a difference here?
  I see a mirror.

I see two names for the same longing
I see two ways to touch the eternal BElonging

I can clearly see through my confusion.

From Alexander Pope - An Essay on Man

Hope springs eternal in the human breast;
Man never is, but always to be blessed:
The soul, uneasy and confined from home,
Rests and expatiates in a life to come.
_____

May it be,
that Spring will always bring us hope and renewal
