Do not make failures of men;
But rather,
Man's inability to deal with those setbacks....

When the struggle of life defeats you,
And nothing is turning out right,
You must remember, it's only a game, 
But play it with all of your might....

Mind defeats reason
Goodbyes said without a word
Win rational thoughts
When unexistent feelings
Are seen as reality

Triumphs and defeats bother us no more
These nonevents diminish not bliss beats
Each pore a door, in its own right, our core
Renews cadence of rapture that repeats...

Diwali
Bursting fireworks and sharing sweets
And the night the early risen sun defeats
Pleasing words and garments fancy-
These I call 'Diwali' still, as I did in my infancy....

FINDING JOY

Oh I find such endless joy and never tire of life
Each day reveals a new found friend
Some souls vow man and wife
Loneliness will twist and bend
But love defeats black strife...

Happy birthday, dear Naeumi, 
Firm hope just sees the ray of light; 
Solid faith defeats tsunami; 
Great love sets everything aright.

Holy Endeavors
The words of God conquer the devil. 
The good defeats the wicked one. 
Temptation comes not from God. 
God's children win by faith, 
surmounting the waves 
of hindrances 
to receive 
endless 
life...

The Mount Everest,

To the hight of Indian democracy,

India won the biggest democracy,

By small,small political defeats,

In the great Indian face,

Democracy and Indian Ocean,

The two eyes!...

Sun Follows the Moon
There it is again
sun peeping behind the clouds
made for perfection

the crimson rays fade
falling down to horizon
darkness defeats light

colors of twilight
silence in the green meadows
moon enslaves the sun...

He Loves Me
Through my triumphs and success
He loves me
Through my weakness and defeats
He loves me
On my good days or bad days
He loves me
With my smiles or tears
He loves me
I am broken and torn
He loves me
I am his for life cause
HE LOVES ME...

Darkness the Cannibal
A breakfast of sunrise,
clear blue sky luncheon,
and a supper of sunset
defeats darkness rising.
 
Shadows remain behind,
lying down buries their existence.

Total darkness is a cannibal 
that feed on lighter shade shadows....

Spoken Tide
Verbal 
irrigation
streams
that rush and flow
Tributaries
far and wide
messages
in tow

Watering
the wasteland
Arid lulls 
retreat
Freeing what
the silence hides
and reticence 
— defeats
