A 52-week poetic adventure… |
| Rising again from what looks like the end Standing up firm when others would bend Losing everything, at a loss where to go I see a path forward, though little I know The struggle is real and it tires me out But hope flames higher than all the doubt Life always changes, new every day Clinging to sameness is never the way Forward I move one step at a time Wondering why I bothered making this rhyme… Poetry and life are rather the same Sometimes they rhyme and other times The meter doesn't fit and it hardly makes sense But I carry on regardless Pen to a blank page, beginning afresh Creating new beauty from ashes and dust. 19 lines, mixed verse (free? Have no idea!)  Poem should be inspired by the prompt/image in some way A minimum of 12 lines, no maximum There are no form requirements |

What are friends? Someone to lend a hand when we find ourselves in quicksand, shout with glee when we cross the finish lines, even if in last place, whisper a candid review when we enter the room with a run of toilet paper stuck to the heel of our shoe. In short, someone like you!](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-Friendship-650.gif)
