Nurturing Love Through Life's Challenges

Nurturing Love Through Life's Challenges

Amidst love's journey, conflicts always arise.
Tackling trials, growth coherently becomes evident.
Within struggles, our radiance shines through.

Through understanding, we live with ease.
We mend; wounds heal, strength apparent.
A journey together, imperfect yet true.

With benevolent words and no malice,
And an act of forgiveness inherent,
Together, we move forward; bonds accrue.

Hi Lukman

It appears you are rhyming ABC,ABC,ABC. In that case, the A rhymes seem to struggle. I think it would not be so hard to find better rhymes.
In S2,L1. I can offer a small change to improve that. A good rhyme would be "lies".
Try something like:
"Through understanding, we drown our lies"...not a great example, but something to think about.

Mark made a good suggestion. Poetic devices can come with practice.
Hope that helps and welcome to Neopoet!
