Resilience

Resilience is

The secret of a smiling face

Even when the feet are

Wading through sludge

Resilience blows

Life in a lifeless self

When one is battling 

A brutal storm

Resilience saves

The fragile bud

From being torn apart

Fighting the tyrant wind

Resilience empowers

The shipwrecked sailor

When the sails and the deck

Surrender to the mighty rocks

Resilience grooms

The unwavering spirit

After hitting the rock bottom

Of one’s low

Resilience harvests

The barren land

When it refuses to embrace despair

Being left unfarmed

Resilience makes

The impossible possible, the Invincible winnable

When you hang on

Without losing faith.
