The Last Sad Loss And Fall Poem by Bernard F. Asuncion

The Last Sad Loss And Fall

Rating: 4.7


Being first in the race is so hard,
The frazzle may make you stumble;
If you're left alone at the tail end,
LAST means Learn About Standing Tall.

If you cry in distress and sorrow,
Lonely, torn, and due for repair;
Dry the tears in your eyes, for
SAD denotes Smile Away Despair.

When triumph seems so elusive,
Beat the defeat to be fearless;
Little did you know that
The LOSS means Lean On Sweet Success.

When highs turn into lows,
Grounded down under the cruel strife;
You'll find in your heart that
FALL stands for Fly Aiming Long Life.

Life is not always a walk in the park,
Before you rise reaching the goal,
Seek God's help first for you to
Endure the last sad loss and fall.
