Meandering through our days in pursuit of success
with ‘our hope’ the rudder that steers us along
Suddenly a rogue wave rocks our boat
and we lose our balance momentarily
We wonder if we should simply give in,
if we can ever set our rowing right
The fact is that with uncompromising faith in our focus
we can steer over, under and around the waves of life
although our movement may be staggered and messy
and success may look dim in our sight, it waits at the shore.

My target was to come up with a poem using 7 days prompt words from Daily post. I almost abandoned ship, but glad I stuck to it and only 30 minutes later, I like the message that I derived from the compilation.
a cooking pot and twisted tales 
A job well done. I like the way your one son (post) has married seven wives (prompts). Hahaha! And they are all well settled.
