 Through The Eyes Of A Poet...

The Present The Future And The Past!


The present we can change,
And turn it around so we can face,
Anything that we want to,
For against time there's a race.

The future is always ahead,
But then will become the present,
Then it will fall into the past,
For all our days are Heaven sent.

The past we can't alter,
For its already been and gone,
No matter the trials we had,
We faced them and we won.

We should never look to the past,
We should leave it all behind,
Throw away the bad times,
So its only happy time we will find.

The present day we can make good,
Stay strong of heart and mind,
If its happiness that we seek,
Then its happiness that we'll find!

The badness we will eke out,
And strive to march ahead,
Make good the life we have,
For we are a long time dead!

So channel your thoughts to positive ones,
Because at the end of the day…
We only want good thoughts and memories,
To keep in our hearts…come what may.
