Hope<br />

A candle in the darkness,<br />

Calm after the storm.<br />

A rainbow arching upwards,<br />

It really can transform.<br />

Forlorn blackness<br />

Becomes promising light.<br />

The depths of despair<br />

Have an end in sight.<br />

Smiling on situations<br />

Like sun on winter days.<br />

Opening doors<br />

In so many ways.<br />

Getting us through,<br />

It has; and it will<br />

Giving us a future,<br />

Something to fulfil.<br />

So now we can look forward,<br />

We can dream, we can aspire.<br />

We can come together as a team<br />

And aim for goals set higher.<br />

It conquers the hard times,<br />

The heartbreak and the tears.<br />

It is the thing that sees us through.<br />

Hope defeats our fears.<br />

Elodie Barnard (Year 7)
