As the Past Unwinds

I woke to a new day where beauty reigns Still, reflections of the past do remain Memories linger deep in the heart But I know each day is a new start As I weave new memories with the old Find shining things in a day like gold I try to share with others what I see As I love to see when people are happy Life brings us through ups and downs New smiles can replace the frowns Always keep searching to see what you may find In a life to live fully, as the past unwinds Heidi Sands 5/10/18

Love the concept and the execution...as the past unwinds...some memories are a pleasure, others, well, best to let them unwind!! Enjoyed!

nothing wrong with visiting the past, just don't live there...live for today looking to tomorrow....this is the wisdom I've gleaned from your poem dear poet

That's right Frederic. We have memories , some very difficult ones, that never leave, but we can make the most of today as best we can and create new beautiful memories :) Thank you for your comment on this.
