Thanks for your observations. This was very much a poem drawn from personal experience-the difficulties that I have had to face in my life. Problems that are still going on. Hope is both a religious virtue, and a secular virtue(of this world, practical) . You could easily have hope without being religious at at all, I think.
It is meant to, but not romantic love, more like disinterested love for other people in general. The Jerusalem Bible uses the word 'love' instead of 'charity', but that is not completely right either, as there are forms of love that are not religious. When a word has many shades of meaning, you just have to accept the shortcomings of whatever word you choose, as I see it.
A well written poem about hope and it's forms. I love the advice for writers. Practice, patience and perseverance are three important ingredients to increasing success.
