a lifestyle & parenting blog
It’s not what it always seems,
In life we will find,
Things that we think,
Things that we assume,
Could bite us, after time,
Challenging us to our core,
We can try our best,
Hoping to succeed,
Learning the hard way,
Is life’s little test!

Sounds like you may be going through a challenging time? You are right, life does throw tests our way but there’s nothing like learning through experience! Hope you are ok. x
Thanks Maddy, yes I am good hun. Life just gets testy sometimes and what better way to vent then through poetry. It always makes me feel better afterwards. It’s like being able to tell your secrets without actually saying your secrets. Not that I have any as a blogger. hahaha
That’s a beautiful poem! Enjoy the rest of your day!
Thank you Cascia. What a lovely thing to say, you enjoy your day too! Thanks for commenting. I love poetry it’s the cheapest therapy there is, haha and always makes me feel better afterwards.
Makes me want to know more.
Always like poems or pics that make me feel that way
Thank you. I do too. I like to leave the ending open so people guess the ending or leave them wanting more. The story is never finished because life goes on to the next thing. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
Do hope that whatever testing times you have at the moment, that you are OK. A lovely way to capture these difficult times #prose4T xx
Thank you Elizabeth, it helps so much to be able to writing poetry and have your true feelings come out. It’s cheap therapy too. As long as I come out with a smile at the end that’s all that matters. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
What a great poem, it makes me think that it’s through challenges that we grow, so bring on the challenges. Just not hard ones!
Thanks Pippa. So very true, wise words my lovely. Let’s just hope we don’t get too challenge, too hard. haha 🙂
That sounds like it’s coming from a heartfelt place 🙂
Thank you Iona. I like to write poetry about real things and what is going on in my life. They feel more real and heartfelt, like you said. Whether it’s the little ones testing me, the other half or the big man upstairs, challenges come and go it’s how we get on with it afterwards that counts. With a smile. 🙂
Hey Jen – Know you’ve had a pretty challenging week but your blog is so beautiful and I’m so pleased I found it. Keep going and things will get better – it’s just a blip. Great post #prose4t
Thank you hun, yes it has been but hopefully next week will hold great things for us all and no more illnesses will plague us. 🙂
Great words 🙂 Life really does bring it’s challenges but it’s how we rise to them that counts. You are doing great 🙂 Thank you for linking to Prose for Thought lovely x
Thanks Vic. So true, challenges just make us stronger and unique. 😉
