Another chapter in life, Is nearly about to close; Seeing the toils and strife, From the streets and roads we chose. Yet it seemed to move by fast, Wondering where it had gone; For the good times did not last, As a new year starts to dawn. So much I want to look back, But time is not standing still; For the knowledge we did lack, Those pleasures gave us no thrill. That is why we live and learn, It may have lit a fire; But afterwards it may turn, To loathing the desire. What happened is now no more, As we live with the mistake; Asking God to close the door, Knowing He will not forsake. Now it becomes history, We should forgive and forget; No longer a mystery, Why we are having regret. But it is time to move on, No need to dwell in the past; As we now face the new dawn, As another year is cast. We look towards our new year, As we go open the door; Putting away any fear, For what the Lord has in store. We now have another chance, To prove ourselves to God; Obedience to advance, When we go honor and laud. Copyright © 2014 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
