Victory, be not proud!
Had I not lost, you couldn't have won,
If I were not there, life wouldn't be fun,
It is amazing, why I am being shunned?
Twin sister, why I am being gunned?
Without sorrow, you know not the joys,
In man's life these are two toys,
When we behave as wanton boys,
To guide our way, the other He ploys.
The sum total of the Truth is ONE,
It is half plus half which makes one,
Without me, half truth is known,
In my absence you feel alone.
All through life we make noise,
Gita's message is to equipoise.
the messeage of scriptures well sketched through these lines- what ever the circumstances of life- maintain equanimity. Had i not lost, you won't have won- eacl line here is thought provoking.10 Mamta
nice poem defeat is the other side of the coin-10
I find this write filled with much depth, but it is really a thought provoking peace. As it has alot of postive thought even though it is about a negitive emotion... Very good, and makes us stop, and think first about being defeated.... Excellent.. Bonnie
Thanks Sir …you’ve reminded very nicely...delved into the flip side of life …we must contemplate upon... Yeah getting nothing is but a kind of ‘getting’… Wonderfully penned and delivered and coordinated message of Gita vide infra: ‘Gita's message is to equipoise.’ Even mindedness 10++ Ms. Nivedita UK
What you have said has power! It is truely unfortunate, that in this world, in which we live, that 'bad things' will always emurage just ahead 'Good things'. It is a natural order... 'Good things' relay on their piety to better prove what is seemingly proof positive evidence for there moral(lol) compass, and therefore Truth...
Very interesting, concept of losing and winning! In life, there's always, an end and a beginning. Enjoyed, this write, very much and have to tell you, you have, the touch!
Defeat and triumph Success and failure are but two sides of the same coin neither can exist alone

How wonderful to be so positive even in defeat. Darkness will always be the flipside of light. It is the attitude that counts. Ten for your gallant poem. Warmest regards, Sandra
