forward motion

to know when is enough, to walk 

away unguarded, to know you must 

face the pain of empty tomorrows

don't you dare look back 

up ahead

it's you! 

chasing rainbows filled with 

new promise 

don't you dare look back

Chasing rainbows with what, dear friend! Your mind and intention is a hard taskmaster, isn't it?!
I know your mind and intention travel far and wide - must take a leaf out of your book... soon.

Hope life is being kind. Stay a while some time so we can natter a few.

life is very good - busy, consuming, not complaining, being called to write, but not writing

how is the heat over there?

Sent a week ago and yet I've only just found it... your guess is as good as mine!

As to your question, who knows from one day to another! Great to see you, if nothing el se- come back sooner than s



oon. :)

This is an inspiring little poem. Thank you for this, invigorating on this dark day of mine. So pleasant with your rainbows and other pleasantries

[emmajoygreen]

Smiling the world would be a wish come true for me, Brad. Many thanks for your review. Keep safe, take care.

[Brad Dehler]

Absolutely!

That sounds like good sound advice! These are words we know we just don't always do as we should. Well written.

[emmajoygreen]

Often ignore my own advice, Diane - that's how it goes, yes ? Many thanks, will be calling. Please forgive my belated response.

Walking away is often extremely difficult but not as difficult I believe as having the willpower to never look back. Not even a fleeting glance? Nope...eyes forward, the future awaits.
I know this is an older piece for you but I have been away for a while so it is all new to me.

[emmajoygreen]

This is a disgracefully late thank you, willweb, my
sincere apologies. Looking back is hell, but sometimes looking forward can be the same, paths
overgrown, thistles ready to.. ..Guess by now you're not quite as new! Ooops, many thanks by the way, almost forgot my manners

To walk away is a hard step but to know that the future is promised is promising. This is a good one

You too, you are such a good vibe and I enjoy reading you. Hope your day is going on great. Let me read you some more

[Gee]

Tis the hardest thing to do, not looking back. At the time it breaks the heart but the heart then alway mends, each time a wee bit stronger.
Hope you are keeping well m'dear and enjoying life :)))

Good morning,
My philosophy exactly..
Never ever dare to look back... go forward to new hopes and promises.
Tomorrows will be filled with love if one lets it.

Wouldn't dare, ever! That much and more is taken on board. Thanks for sharing. /Frederick.

Don't you dare look back at yesterday's sadness and gloom, don't look back at all the hardships you've been through. Look ahead at tomorrow because one day you'll be ridden of your sorrows, chasing the rainbows, forgetting that feeling of hollow. This is a poem filled with optimism, one must remain positive in the struggles they face to welcome better days. A powerful write!
