Adversity Poem by Micheal Olaniyi

Adversity



building a beautiful sand castle
somewhere around the sea shore,
I stood aback to admire my work,
when a huge wave
came to destroy,
I said to myself
"there must be a lesson in this adversity"
but I couldn't figure out what it was,
looking at the smooth sand mound
which was my creation moment before.
