LaJenna
Today or yesterday
Will you ponder upon?
Do you think about the past?
Or strive to make today last
The past can be full of great memories
That can fill our hearts
But do not let past pains hit you like a dart
For our lives will have many chapters in it
Learn from them all
And stand proud and tall
Never let your smile fade
guard yourself with life’s shade
Reflection
How many times have you looked too hard at the past,
and could not seem to put much thought into the future?
Every day is a chance for a fresh start,
so never forget to wade awhile in the water of the NOW.
Dream sweet dreams about your new chapter one.
Then, chapter two will be lots of fun
Chapter three where all battles have been fun.
Keep going and Chapter ten will bring you successfully into Chapter 20,
and so on and so on.
Why, because you have let the past go and you have become a winner.
This is an amazing poem.
Every day is a fresh start – what a great thought!
i was wandering your older poems. I love these!
This is great. I spend a lot of the time in the past. Right now, since most of the post are coming from the journal I am learning more and more who she really was. It’s an honor to keep her legacy. Wonderful work and thanks for sharing.
Thank you Ghostwriter for your valuable insight here.
NIce poem, it is full of optimism. I like it.
Sentimental piece of poetry. Very nice.
Thank you Teila for visiting!
Thank you Carol DM my dear friend. Everyday I am tempted to think about the past sorrows, but then I think to myself will it help anything? No it will not, so I start smiling and think about today.
Merry Christmas carol DM
This touched me deeply LaJenna. I am in the past more lately.
