Comment from Pearl Edwards
Your words go well with this picture Wendy. Thankfully life isn't all such hard yakka. If you have loved and are loved I think the up and down hills makes for a good ending. Enjoyed your 2-3-2 poem. Cheers

Thanks so much Valda. I'm glad you enjoyed this very tiny one. And you are right. Life is a balance of both ups and sowns, and that is best or we would never appreciate the many good things we have all the time.

Comment from harmony13
I like the title of your poem! Yes, life is hard! I agree with the author's
word. This 3 line poem gives great advise. The poem flows and connects
well. The artwork is great and compliments the words of this poem.
Have a great week, Wendy!....Maria

You sum it up perfectly in such a short format. We can only do what we can do, in the acknowledgement that it's always a challenge and what we do may not be enough, but I think intention and dedication count for much.

Comment from patricia dillon
You have done your best to convey a meaningful message in these few words. The image of trekking up a mountain is well-chosen and evocative. The illustration is very important in this case.

Comment from Celyn
This poem says it all really and follows the rules of a 2-3-2 poem so well done. I think its sentiments have been used many times before by many different authors but that does not make them any less a truism.
Good luck with it.

Yes, I'm sure plenty have expressed those same sentiments - perhaps with more words, even books also. It's definitely a very short summary of a philosophy of life! Lol. Many thanks.
Comment from Denizen Kane
Your poem is one I can imagine having been taped to the bathroom mirror, as both a reminder and an inspiration, that what you wrote is soulfully true. Fight the good fight. Finish the race. Well done.

Comment from Zue65
It is really difficult to pack in message into a poem as short as the 232 poetical form. But the author was able to squeeze in the meaning excellently with the choice of words that will convey the meaning as the author intended for the readers. Thanks for writing. Kudos.
