Adversity. Poem by Nabakishore Dash

Pot full happiness
Perfection satisfaction,
are never possible
in the life of any one.
because life's road is never plain.

Ascension, descension,
twists and turns,
sorrow of loss,
joy of gain,
are surely there in every life span.

Adversity, opportunity
appear and disappear.
Forward motion of life
should not suffer.
Man must have courage to persevere.

Obstacles are stepping stones,
never are they stopping stones.
Adversity is a powerful teacher,
sows seeds of sunny future.
Man must use it as banister
and amplifier.

Purity of gold is tested
when burnt in fire.
Adversity is a crucible
to test friends, well- wishers.
For trusty friend is a constant
helper, not an evader.

A child learns to walk
after multiple falls.
Like wise man should
Keep trying against all pitfalls.
For falls inspire one to
initiate fresh trials.
