Each week poet Ronovan Hester sponsors a Haiku prompt challenge and folks (like me) try to follow his lead. This week the two words are regal and hopeful. If you have interest in this art form, please click on his name and you'll be guided to his website where you'll find detailed instructions.

When I thought of the two words (regal and hopeful), my grandchildren came to mind. Their lively and precious imaginations spark my own dreams. They are the inspiration for this simple haiku poem.

Thanks so much, Jan. I thought of your little granddaughters when I wrote this. Sweet, magical age.
