Strong Hearts Bright Lights

Written: April 21, 2025, for contest Sponsored by: Constance La France Quote: "Life is a balance between holding on and letting go." By Rumi ****************** It is never too early or too late, to let joy rise like a cherished tune. A tribute to life, it's meant to illuminate, the zenith of a soul sculpted and strewn. Emerging from walls built to hold us strong, in every trial of sorrow we endure. Through all the twists that fate may prolong, our joy persists amid both grief and allure. Smiles and pain are a double-edged sword, reaching the heart of what truly rewards. Steady and steadfast despite life’s surprise, hope and comfort can bloom as our prize. Embrace life to ease struggle and boost fate.
