Thinking of yesturday only brings you tears and sorrow,

unless they were happy thoughts that only give strength.

We can never rewind time and change the rights or wrongs.

leave in the past and placed it where it belongs.

Hold in your heart the memories of sweet and joy,

don't lock your heart with sadness that takes up inside,

leave room for the things that are right and bright.

Always live in the moment of today,

today brings many things that are nice and bad but

learn to filter out the wrongs, so that you don't hold

the hardness in your blood and vains.

Live for today there's a lesson to be taught,

a new experience to face, a new friend to meet

and new windows of opportunity.

If we shelter our selves in the past then today is

forgotten and now past away.

Always dream of tomorrow that's what keeps us going,

give strength and imagination, invision how you want

it to be like and give it power.

strive on for tomorrow, don't give your power away to the past that's taken your heart and filled it with sorrow.

Gone with yesturday, here today, and dreaming for tomorrow.

yesturday should be yesterday and vains should be veins...typos jump out at me although my first comment on your first poem I read I believe preminition is spelled premonition but even that doesn't look right, anyways wanted to mention the typos in case you wanna fix them...other than that I love the message. You are a very talented writer and if you ever notice any typos on mine please point them out for me too...I relate to this and wrote a piece quite awhile ago called Here and Now that has basically the same message in different words...please check it out and comment when you have time. I am so glad that you commented on a couple of my recent poems cuz it led me to read yours and I love what I have read so far. I hope to read lots more of your stuff and hope you do the same with mine...your poetry pal, Pam

you did a great job with this poem. it is true... we have to leave the past in the past, live for today, and continue to give ourselves strength to strive for an always better future. can never give up hope, give in to regrets, nor give up on ourselves.
good job bobbie

First of all, thank you for your critique. I like your poem and the message you are trying to convey, however I believe there are differences between this one and mine, contary to what you said. "yesturday, today and tomorrow" is positive, saying how the past is in the past and think about tomorrow. Mine was more pesamisstic, I wrote when I was down, how the past still haunts me. Having said that, your poem is very good; it brings across the message very strongly. Nice job!!!
