Audrey Haick Poet Rhyme

Look Past It To Tomorrow

Today, your face and heart may wear a frown
Some one or life has let you down
One lesson I have learned so well
In that dark place I will not dwell
Sorrow may bring to my eyes a flood
And tears overflow and stain the floor
At that moment recall yesterdays so dark 
How you survived when hope did spark
If tears must fall, to cleanse the pain 
Then let it be! For with hope, comes more gain
Look past it to tomorrow!

Joseph Spence Sr June 29, 2010 at 8:09 PM Audrey, this is such a wonderful poem. It flows very well and is quite touching. There is always another day when the sun rises, which is right on point. Yesterday will be gone and tomorrow will replace it with joy instead of sadness. Great job! Joseph
