"Troubled din" and "fuels dreams" are two word combinations with very powerful pictures!

Best of luck in the 2-4-6 Poem writing prompt contest.

Your poem makes use of powerful words to convey the wonderful message that hope can overwhelm chaos and doubt to allow for dreams. Reason for 4: According to howmanysyllables.com and dictionary.com, "fuels" is two syllables--making your count 2-4-7.

    Thank you so much, Janice -- think the only place I can think of where it sounds like 2 syllables is in the Christmas song 'Good King Wenceslas' when he's 'gathering winter's fuel' - LOL! Take care and have a great weekend!

This 2-4-6, Forever Forward, has the right set up and reminds the reader to always press on because the past has no future and the present cannot last.

A very well-written 2-4-6 poem about hope that is always there within us under he bravado where no one else can see it until we have a reason to unveil our superb power disguised as hope.

You have written a great poem with a good message, especially with the word limits.

I'm have many times had only hope to hold on to in many circumstances.

Good luck in the contest.

The above poem is absolutely true. I of course having enjoyed how every word joined gave a profound expression of how a hard life can turn one's dream through much hope. Food for thought. Great piece of work.

"Din," that's an uncommon word. I had to look up what it means and I like the way you used it. Don't forget to capitalize the word "Life's" as it is the beginning word in the line.
