Past, Present, Future

Past, Present, Future

A Poem by Mazie Tackett

Don't sulk about the past,
The past was long ago.
Don't long for the future,
Of that we do not know.

The present is now,
So lets go and have some fun.
Time is what we have,
And of it we have a ton.

So lets go right now,
And see what can be done
Cause of all the lives there are
We only have but one.

So don't hold back.
Its something you will regret.
So live life like you want,
And make it a life no one will forget.

The past is behind you, the future is a mystery, but right now is the present ans you have to live each moment like its your last. Your poem is inspiring to go out and make the most of right now!

I completely agree - if we spent too much time dwelling in the past, we might miss the present...and then we'll be sorry about it later, so the cycle will repeat itself.
Good job!

Honest and yes! Exactly! I try to write to be remembered, and remember, so that one day someone will be like "Oh yeah! That poem! I love that author!" And be talking about me or one of the amazing writers I know ;). Beautiful and easily relatable, very well written adn smooth flow with a nice rhyme scheme.

Last two lines, first stanza are terrific. So profound. So true. "So let's go" needs an apostrophe for the contraction. You do that twice and once in the last stanza second line. The last line is stellar.
