Failure is an outcome of an attempt
A man is not opportune to succeed,
Unless he opens his door for failure to have an impact.
Failure is the seed of success
Failure is the placenta of success.

Failure is the nutrient (food) of success
When success is faced with starvation,
Failure is always to the rescue
The sweat of failure waters the growth of success
Failure is the sacrifice of success.

The death of failure is the epoch of success
Any smoke devoid of fire ebbs away
Success flora without failure ancestry succumbs
A failure not ended at success in incomplete
The dearth of failure is the finality of success.

When we sit in our success,
Failure is throttle.
Success subsequently succumbs, stales and smells.
(Waiting in) success stagnates success.
Stagnant success collapses and extinct.

The end of success is suffocating
Success celebrated suffers barrenness
The beauty of failure surfaces
When the cloak of attempts wearies out
Failure is success in disguise

Failure is an uncompleted success.
