Anitha Jayasankar Poet Acrostic

A Message For You - Mia

FAILURES

Failing in your efforts to achieve your cherished dream
Are just the keys to the possible success supreme;
If your steps to reach the peak in the dark hard seem, 
Lift up your spirit, leap forward in its guiding beam;
Unless unswervingly you move to face trials extreme
Reaching success is best forgotten - a daydream;
Embrace your failures and on you move and gleam, 
See yourself shine as do the skies in the sunbeam;

Judy Ball September 6, 2021 at 10:50 PM A fine Acrostic Ani. Well done. I used to tell my kids there are no failures unless you don't learn from them and no losers unless you just don't try. There are no losers in a race or contest because you tried but you didn't lose anything. You just didn't win anything. You can't lose what you didn't have to begin with. Fine job here. Good luck in the contest. God Bless, JB
