🌿🌻Triolet for Thursday 23 – When All Is Said And Done🌻🌿

#triolet #poetry #French

When all is said and done, 
We live the best we can.
We want to live in that sun,
When all is said and done.
But life can be hard won,
Sometimes not in the plan.
When all is said and done, 
We live the best we can.

The slings and arrows hurt,
We learn who we can trust.
Life takes so much effort,
The slings and arrows hurt.
We learn to stay so alert,
And do the things we must.
The slings and arrows hurt,
We learn who we can trust.

We find our inner strength, 
Dredged up through the fear.
Balance discovered at length,
We find our inner strength.
Tuned into our own wavelength,
We keep our loved ones near.
We find our inner strength, 
Dredged up through the fear.
