Notes About The Poem

" FUTURE SUCCESSES " MY PHOTO, ©

May be an image of nature, tree and mountain

Stolen Time

Any sum of time we spent lamenting over past failures,

Is precious time that is stolen from our future successes!

So true my friend Demetrios. Since we can not get it back, we may as well gain some wisdom from our errors and go on to a better day when we are successful.
