Nouns



Nouns
By Robert T. Davenport

Silence, darkness, solitude, and time,
Whispers of memories, etched in rhyme.
Hope, resilience, and dreams untold,
A tapestry of emotions, woven bold.

Love, compassion, and empathy's embrace,
Strength, courage, and grace interlace.
Pain, struggle, and battles fought,
Lessons learned, wisdom sought.

Stars, moonbeams, and sun's warm glow,
Mountains, oceans, where dreams flow.
Laughter, tears, and moments shared,
Friendship, family, hearts bared.

Whispers of wind, secrets untold,
Whispers of love, stories unfold.
Whispers of hope, in the darkest night,
Whispers of dreams, taking flight.

Whispers of change, in every breath,
Whispers of healing, conquering death.
Whispers of unity, breaking down walls,
Whispers of peace, as humanity calls.

Whispers of gratitude, for all we possess,
Whispers of forgiveness, to heal and redress.
Whispers of purpose, guiding our way,
Whispers of resilience, day after day.

In the tapestry of life, these nouns intertwine,
Creating a symphony, both yours and mine.
For in the depths of nouns, lies the power to be,
To shape our world, and set our spirits free.
