A lotus in mire,
A rose amid thorns,
A cactus in desert,
A creation in derision,
A song of beauty
Born in adversity!!

harsh adversity
brings forth determination
tulips in the snow
the strongest of souls
cast from their adversity
breathe the breath of life

adversity in life can be either our barricade or our bridge.
Sting of bee,
shakes you up,
Bite of snake,
makes you dead,
that's difference,
when you have adversity vis a vis death in reference.

May my adversity
be enameled with civility
May my diversity
be filled with commonality
May my best move
always be 'Common Sense'

Growth from adversity
Based on who's reality
Just once would it pass by
Worn from life trial am I
Provide just a little peace
God grant sweet release

Enjoyment of life does not come because of the lack of adversity but because of its presence

When adversity rages its trials for me,
Though fire and suffering it brings,
My eyes will I fix on the joy of His Love
As the Spirit of God in me sings.
No

Events that teach
To be more wise and selective in life

Those who give charity,
both in prosperity and in adversity,
Those who control their rage,
and those who are forgiving towards mankind.
Note.This is Islamic Morality!
Her vessel is empty, yet she is oxygen
Mother, is her name.
She sits in contemplation of
Tomorrow's provision
And you will never know when
Her weary soul is dying.
If adversity don`t break you
Adversity will make you stronger in facing life

a wheel within a wheel i see,
return retrace eternity,
the faces in the mist agree,
that i should yet insist,
logic doth encrypt,
a life of adversity

Your story is not just your tattoos
or the scars on your skin
your story is from deep in your heart
made from battles fought within.

Butterfly lands free anywhere
there, here or over there
wherever she wants...
She is enchanted !
She flies free,
she possesses wings,
profits the wind
i do not.. !
what adversity !
carousel whirls round and round
horses climbing up and down
few riders smiling
most, teardrops crying
calliope’s adversity
three minutes an eternity
I am calmly motivated
through adversity ,
with a holistic salvation
we are never undeserving ;
always be the headway
from afterworld .

Words, words, how do you feel?My emotions cascade in a stream.The crisis confronts me head on.Enough is enough, let chance,let faith set sail.
being,not living
begone ,sense of otherness-
in His hands, I am
We meet adversity,
friend or foe
One to run from,
the other to know
Their dress identical,
intention the same
Accepted—Rejected,
the truth is renamed
(Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2017)
In the urgency of fear,
I transform,
in adversity, I realize who I am,
Normally, I don't even recognise myself...
So poetry is for me
nourishment and encouragement...
i discover it because so
is the living... !
I am
not motivated
adversity is
torn from
headway
unaware
context
can be
needlessly
preemptive
could
afterworld memento
calmly
vanquish
through
salvation
