W3 Prompt #48: Wea’ve Written Weekly
Hope is the whisper of the heart
A gentle breeze that sets us apart
From the darkness that surrounds us all
And the fears that make us fall
It's a guide, a teacher a light in a dark night
The strength to stand up and fight
For what we believe in, for what we cherish
For the dreams that we long to nourish
Hope is the flame that never dies
The voice that echoes in our minds
When everything else seems lost
And we're paying the highest cost
It's the first step that needs courage to get
When we're filled with doubt and regret
To move forward with grace and poise
And leave behind the noise
Hope is the embrace of a friend
The warmth that helps us mend
When our hearts are broken and torn
And we feel so lost and forlorn
It's the promise of a better tomorrow
The joy that replaces our sorrow
The belief that anything is possible
When we're open and unstoppable
Hope is the beauty of a sunrise
The colors that fill up the skies
The reminder that each day is new
And there's so much we can do
It's the faith that we'll find our way
No matter how hard it is today
That we'll overcome our struggles
And rise above our troubles
Hope is the music in our souls
The melody that makes us whole
The rhythm that keeps us moving
And the beat that keeps us grooving
It's the story we write with our lives
The moments that make us feel alive
The journey that we're all on
And the hopes that will never be gone
Hope is the future we're creating
The dreams that we're articulating
The love that we're sharing
And the hope that we're daring
To imagine a world that's kinder and just
Where everyone is valued and trust
Where we're united in purpose and vision
And hope is the force that guides our mission
So hold on to hope each day
And let it light our way
Through the ups and downs of life
And the challenges that we'll face in stride
For hope is the essence of our being
The reason we keep on believing
That the best is yet to come
And our journey has only just begun.
Hope is the voice that whispers in the wind
A promise of a new beginning
When everything else nears to an end
And all seems lost without a winning
It's the sun that rises after a storm
The colors of the rainbow after the rain
The feeling of safety, the calm
That washes away all the pain
Hope is the strength to carry on
When everything else has gone
When we face obstacles and doubts
It's the light that guides us out
It's that precious courage to take the first step
When the path ahead is not clear
To trust in our heart and never forget
That hope is always near
It's the smile on a stranger's face
The kindness of a friend
The reminder that we're not alone in this race
That there's always a helping hand to lend
Hope is the fire that keeps burning
When everything else has turned to ashes
The faith that keeps us yearning
For a future that's full of promises
It's the wings that lift us up
When we're struggling to fly
To soar high and touch the sky
And leave all our fears behind
Hope is the melody that plays in our hearts
The rhythm that keeps us alive
The beat that keeps us from falling apart
And the inspiration to thrive
It's the vision of a better tomorrow
The dream of a brighter future
The faith that helps us through sorrow
And the love that makes us feel sure
Hope is the only thread that weaves us together
In a tapestry of life and love in every weather
The reminder that we're stronger
When we stand hand in hand and never give up
So let us embrace hope every day
And let it shine bright in our hearts
For it's the beacon that lights our way
And the force that sets us apart.
Hope is the seed that grows in the earth
The promise of life and renewal
It's the light that guides us from birth
And the foundation of all that's beautiful
It's the sun that warms us from afar
The stars that twinkle in the night
The moon that illuminates the dark
And the universe that fills us with delight
Hope is the bridge that spans the gap
Between our dreams and reality
It's the hand that pulls us from the trap
Of despair and futility
It's the hope that springs eternal
In the hearts of those who believe
That there's always a chance for revival
And that love will always achieve
Hope is the shelter that protects us
From the stormy winds of fate
The comfort that surrounds us
When everything else seems to disintegrate
It's the inspiration that sparks creativity
The motivation that drives us to succeed
The innovation that solves complexity
And the joy that makes us feel freed
Hope is that lens that makes us see
The beauty and wonder of the world
It's the spirit that sets us free
And the magic that makes life unfurled
It's the hope that keeps us going
Through the struggles and the strife
And the belief that we are growing
Into the best version of our life
So let us hold onto hope
And never let it slip away
For it's the strength that helps us cope
And the light that guides us day by day.
