What I'Ve Done

There are things I wish I had never done. Thoughtless things while on the run. Thinking it was just having fun. Summer days spent chasing the sun. Making excuses, when there was none. Feeling trapped, and under the gun. Looking out for me, number one. Using humor, a teasing pun. End an event, before it had begun. Losing but, convinced I had won. Judging those I intended to shun. If only I could go back and have it all undone.

Well said, but we learn best from experience not to make the same mistake twice! Aloha!

Thank you Rico. Hopefully it is a one and done thing.

This is quite good, Sandra. I think most of us can relate. We all have those things we wish we could undo, but we have to live with them.

There is much that we can look back upon and wish we could have done differently Sandy. Today is the day forward. Well done :)
