Life in prairie could be fun,
especially when you ride a horse and run;
Wind blows a lovely song,
Adventures keep you live and young.
.
The journey ahead could be as rough as a tree,
Through the mist one is unable to see,
Doubts and hesitations may knock your brain,
Fears and failures may cause you pain.
.
Yet, Life will make your learn,
Sometimes you lose and sometimes you win;
You are born to live,
As hope lingers and tickles your belief.

Very nice here, Jingle. 🙂 I grew up on the prairie and rode my horse to the first two years of high school. That was as nice an experience as your poem told it, making it personal for me.

You are the queen of selecting lovely, fanciful illustrations, Ji. And what a nice poem. Truth: hope does linger.

This is so lovely. Feels like it belongs in a children’s anthology~!
beautifully written jingle.
lively and fun!
hope is what keeps us going.
well written
This was a fun read, Jingle. Had me thinking about my move from country to city (life in the prairie could be fun). Fun to see where this prompt took you.

such sweet sensations through very sweet words 🙂
beautiful one Jingle!
Peace
Love it, love it, Jingle. : )
I adore the Monday’s Child image. I think you must have written your delightful poem whilst admiring it! Or perhaps you wrote your poem and sought the perfect image to accompany it. Either way, both are so true and perfect!
And thank you, Ji, for visiting my site and liking my story : )
This is so cute, Ji!
Doesn’t quite fit the theme of fear, but it was refreshing.
Loved it!
Nice to have a happy poem to start off the week. Have a good one!
sometimes you lose sometimes you win…you won with this one!
Well done!
Lovely poem & beautiful pictures!
You are born to live,
As hope lingers and tickles your belief.
Nice….
Very good, Jingle….great rhymes…great message. Vb

The rhymes, awesome, I enjoyed it. 🙂
Have fun in the potluck!
