Yesterdays

Yesterdays'     Acrostic


Y...yesterdays' are already gone, but not forgotten.
E...Every now and then - we think of them.
S...Some of yesterday's memories are very vivid in our minds.
T...Tomorrow will be a brand new day that will soon be a yesterday.
E...Everything in life is not always peaches and cream.
R...Remembering now is like sweet dreams.
D...Do on to others as you would have others do to you.
A...Along life's way - you will leave many yesterdays.
Y...You will always be the master of your life.
S...Save a memory today - so tomorrow you can remember a yesterday...

Very nicely written, Lucilla. Yesterdays keep stacking up while todays are always unsure. I'm always happy when I have racked up another today with anticipation of it becoming a tomorrow. I enjoyed this one, my friend.... Robert.

this is so nice, and I love that last line. Just had to come here since you were my last comment of the day. I had gotten ready to leave with Deb as my last one and yours just popped up. Have a good night, dear.
