Savour the Moment

Time and tide wait for none, it is said
It is a true and a wise statement indeed
Forget the dead past and fears of future
Savour the moment precious and be happy.

No extent of brooding can recoil the past
Nor help ease the anxieties of tomorrow
Let the past ghosts be laid to rest for good
Leave the past behind for good certainly 
Savour the moment precious and be happy.

Enough of stale rancour; put a full stop to it
Ignore the apprehensions of the impending
Have firm trust in the supreme power above
And be at peace with oneself; that is abiding
Savour the moment precious and be happy.
