Poem: Reasons For Hope

A smile
A laugh
A touch.
Small acts of kindness
Small gestures.
Ever expanding knowledge
Communication
Information
For all.
Opened eyes
Movements for change
Push for equality .
The people around me
The people speaking up
The people standing firm.
The people of justice
Faith and hope
Honor and love.
These are
My reasons for hope.
