Past, Present and Future

We can all sit back and review the past
Of relationships that sadly didn’t last
We ask ourselves just what went wrong
And our songbird sings a sad blues song

Time to move on and get on with our life
Deal with all our old worries and strife
We can only learn from a past mistake
Hope for better days with less heartache

We cannot predict what the future will bring
But I hope in time your heart does sing
And you find the one that you’ll adore
Restoring happiness to your life once more

Christine Costello Date: 8/24/2014 10:05:00 PM I;ve learned a lot about MYSELF from reviewing the choices, the people that I have made. Heartache brings such growth if we are willing to be broken-hearted for a bit. really nice poem. :-) Christine Login to Reply Jan Allison Date: 8/25/2014 3:41:00 AM thanks for the lovely comment Christine:-) Hugs Jan xx

Angie Thomas Date: 8/24/2014 11:55:00 AM Hmm... Sometimes you just can't sot dwelling on the past ... But the present and the future are more important right? :) Login to Reply Jan Allison Date: 8/24/2014 5:56:00 PM You can look back and learn from the past Angie but you need to learn to move on - it is the here and now and the future that you can look forward to:-) Hugs jan xxx
