Can One Achieve One’s Destiny While Straying From One’s True Path
The Compass trembles — still —
Though Wand’rers cross the Field —
A Needle — bent — may falter —
Yet Secrets are revealed —
The Brook forgets its Channel —
And cuts a curious Line —
Yet — reaches Sea — regardless —
Oblivious — of Design —
The Sparrow — takes the wrong Branch —
Yet — Sings the Morning true —
Perhaps

The Decent
Deep in melancholy fields I sit.
Heavy with the thought, I'm pinned in place
The past, present, future wrestle in silence
A hill of happiness rises in the distance—out of reach, yet inviting
I notice that both sides are longer than the apogee
My legs tremble, not from the height but from fear
Fear of short-lived joy
Each step echoes in the

To Achieve For Greatness
By
Frank Lilpoeta Fernandez
A Poem catered to People with Special needs
People with Disabilities
Can make a difference
By taking risks
Some become connoisseurs
Some become great entrepreneurs
Some become great leaders
Some become investors
Some become great voices for advocating others with disabilities.
Some become great writers
Some become models
Some become great dancers
Some become like Temple

The Marathon of Life
In the marathon of life, we run with grit,
In the sprint of moments, we dash with grace.
In the relay of generations, we pass the baton.
Our legs pump like pistons, hearts our engines,
Our breath is the fuel that fires our journey.
We run through valleys of shadow and doubt,

A Souper called Sara Etgen-Baker
My dear Souper Sara Etgen-Baker
tastes bittersweet moments.
Sweet, because she's riding
on a beautiful horse
to be a number one.
Bitter, because she doesn't
have the same time
to spend in the PoetrySoup
with her brothers and sisters.
We've already missed you
my Texan friend,
you must know.
Let me give you my advice
my dear friend:
Ride well on this race
that life

I Became a Nightmare To Those Who Thought I Would Not Achieve
Growing up
I knew I needed more
This was a reality of my destiny
There was a need
To break the scope of misery
While rewriting the history books
Since I was little
I knew I wanted something bigger
I woke up hungry for hope
Walking the streets knowing there was a need to cope
I became a nightmare to those who thought I

Dreams and Reality
Dreams can come easily anytime anywhere
Before and behind reality
But success may not come anytime anywhere
Before reality
You must put in extra effort anytime anywhere
Before and behind reality
Dreams form easily but not success
Dreams form easily
This is so called reality
Success is hard to achieve
This is also called reality
And if you fail
There hardly any choice
Reality is

Meant To Achieve
A sense of knowing
Being content in my individualism
A sense of fulfillment
Being able to accept what I cannot change
A sense of belonging
Being able to recognize what love can or cannot achieve
A sense of maturity
Being able to distinguish what is best for me
A sense of achievements
Being able to be a true leader.

Nothing would be possible to keep him from his success apart!

To Achieve Your Goal
Do your best and try much harder than before
Otherwise, you will see doing nothing is a terrible bore,
and unless you want to get your bottom wet
In the end, you might have deep regret

Visions
Visions
So, what are your visions?
What do you see?
Before you answer that question
Are you even in God’s army?
What are your visions?
What are your hopes and dreams?
Do they line up with God’s plan?
Does it go hand in hand
With God’s promises?
Is your vision for promotion
In your life or for others?
Is your vision to build
So you can help you
