Temporary defeats,
Do not make failures of men;

stumble fall whine crawl
taste of sand in teeth lingers
look where you step next

What  setbacks  greater  


     are,  in  a  married   life,  than

Not in writing
to win a prize,
approaching people in
the world's threats and wounds

After doing so

listening
considering
recording of their setbacks
to cheer together

Setbacks

      Cast away regret.
      From setbacks our future grows
      As our strengths unfold.

Road Trip Acrostic
Riding the curves set before us
Only our senses respond
And there are also no setbacks
Drilling its Bravery to Us

Turning and tripping and twirling
Rough spins until we are strong
Inner desire preserving 
Proudly conquers Our Faults...

No eye patch,
neither wind nor
vertices and
obstacles... nor
times, and
setbacks... neither
wars, or
battles...

Nothing...
There is nothing...
absolutely

obstruct,
prevent
the manifestation
of clear
and the clarity...!...

The Rain
Falling ever so gently
My tears mix with the rain.
It foreshadows
the coming pain,
the past pain,
the present pain.
But I know
these unexpected storms
only water the conquerer within.
So these trifling setbacks,
shouldn't make me cry at all.
But they do....
