Resonance poem

Resonance,
oh, how you come to me,
how you come to me in my memory,
and how you resonate from history with your speeches,
and how you inspire me,
how you inspire me with your speeches,
and the beauty of the language,
that you use to stir the hearts and the minds of all,
in both audio and in text,
and in all such fine words,
to bring attention to so many causes that you are,
and were so passionate about in your hearts,
and oh, how they resonate still,
oh, how they come to me,
upon the page and out loud,
and how you come to me in my memory,
and how you the greatest of the great,
with your speeches resonate so powerfully from history,
Theodore Roosevelt,
Florence Nightingale,
Malcolm X,
Mahatma Ghandi,
Martin Luther King,
Nelson Mandela,
Winston Churchill,
and many more,
many who so tirelessly devote their lives,
to their given cause,
and those who gave their lives,
and who lost their lives fighting without pause,
such as Emily Wilding Davison of the suffragettes,
and the many well-known,
and the many forgotten campaigners,
who fought so hard for freedoms,
and who fought wars and who fought them all,
war, racism, hate and intolerance,
oh, how powerfully you resonate in audio and in text,
and from the pages of history,
and how you will continue to stir the hearts,
and the minds for centuries to come of humanity,
and inspired we will be by others whose speeches,
whose speeches for their cause will be rightly remembered,
as will they all and them never will we forget.
