Whispers of Hope
#WritcoPoemChallenge
#CoronaVirus
The days too eventually fell silent,
No sounds, not even by the crows,
All you could hear was the sound of,
Fear knocking on the doors.

Through veils of dusk, the silence crept,
Embracing every corner, every street.
In quiet realms, where shadows slept,
Fear's icy fingers found hearts to greet.

With whispers soft as evening mist,
It whispered secrets, dark and cold.
In the stillness, fears began to twist,
As uncertainty its tale unfold.

But even in the hush, a spark remains,
A glimmer of hope, a silent prayer.
Amidst the silence, where fear reigns,
Courage rises, a beacon fair.

For though the nights may seem unkind,
And darkness holds its sway,
In the silence, strength we find,
To face the fear, and light the way. #Poetry #Hope #Silence #Resilience #Courage
