In Absence of Complication

IN ABSENCE OF COMPLICATION

            In the absence of complication
      trials and tribunals become distant memories.
    Above sapphire skies delight sanguine eyes   
     inspiring forthcoming musing of mind.
                          
      Granting journey of life easy and smooth,
      apprehending bright future welcoming,
      seeming success awaiting ahead sent from favorable fate.
      expecting downfall or defeat to eradicate absolute.
     
     Confidence soaring high and higher.
     Yet doubt and confusion!
    Over-expectation may not invite blunder or frustration!                      
    Life is not a fragrant flower bed
     Rather to apprise in brief:
     Life is blended with joy and grief
     showering simultaneous on us
   It’s not wise to surrender solely, anticipating flow of fervent fortune.
    
  Zeal and zest aspiring to sail to explore boundless sea.
  Troubles, hurdles even reappear, good to be fearless.
  Better to ignore and delete the three terms ‘If’, ‘perhaps’, ‘but’. 
  When shore is unreachable, best to settle on abyss.
