Guests

Failure has no shape or colour,

But it visits someone as a guest,

Who is awestruck and in distress

And while the host is brooding,

The guest is simply enjoying!

And sometimes it extends its stay,

For the host is reluctant to part way!

But when Failure relaxes in one place,

Depression, frustration also follow the guest.

So it's best to bid goodbye when Failure touches you someday,

For if you look behind the Failure,

Success is on its way!

Greet, welcome and entertain this new guest,

But don't get lost in its charm,

Keep your feet to the ground,

Spread love and compassion around

Build up self confidence and keep it safe and sound

So that if Success passes away to knock another door,

You have lots of blessings in store!

Fear not if Failure is spotted again

You have learnt now to bid him goodbye and not to entertain!
