Dear Chetta, you're thoughts hold so much truth. The struggle is very real, and we face these obstacles daily. Striving to stay on the right path, in a world filled with many crooked roads, seems to be impossible. It can be done. Congratulations my sweet friend, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy

Many congratulations Chetta for POTD with this beautiful and so well written poem. Love the fast flow of this poem as time too is so fleeting, frantic and yes, a relentless pace at times. You have captured so much here - I love, ‘ chasing fading dreams, upriver in time’s relentless stream’. Really enjoyed it. Blessings to you.
