Noble Language

Subject Chosen: Sign Language

In order to show who we are,

we need more than a posh car,

we need to show our thoughts,

not simply our school reports,

yes we can write them down,

but to some this brings a frown,

for with words they are not good,

and cannot say what they should,

so we speak and are heard,

the serious, funny and absurd,

but what if we cannot speak,

what communication then can we seek,

a noble language that is sign,

perfect eloquence and design,

it is poetry in motion,

showing joy in every emotion,

it allows expression in life,

and communication of it's strife.
