Tumble

Like a weed across the dry landscape 

Kicking dust parties in to the air as they pass 

They seem to have it all figured out!

Let nature take its course of course 

It will never let you down like those trolls

The ones living in your digitalised mind 

Shake em off 

Each time I tumble a little lower,

I get higher in my self 

The hope I hang prayers on hovers

And its smile is contagious

Like everyone looking at a rainbow in blue skies through white clouds.

Isn't that something?

To know there's  us, 

And always a good thing to be had 

Out of every bad 

No time to waste grumbling

Gonna make my good times a tumbling 

Don't waste too much time fumbling 

Why don't cha come along!

I like the style of this one

I like the style of this one and how descriptive you are with how you describe the experience and emotion.

A life-affirming outlook I

A life-affirming outlook I can get behind!

 

The blithe, witty and lighthearted tone of your accessible expression certainly does have the feel and metaphorical significance of tumbling . . . into a stratosphere of renewal and hope.

 

I absolutely love this:  

 

"Each time I tumble a little lower,

I get higher in my self

The hope I hang prayers on hovers

And its smile is contagious"

 

I can relate, and yes, I'll come along!
