MEMORIES OF YESTERDAY

MEMORIES OF YESTERDAY
Written with poetic license.

Wake up in the morning
with no memory at all,
Instinct would be to stand
but you would only fall.

Don’t live in memories of the past
are words so often said.
Without memories of yesterday,
your future would be dead.

Everyday you face; is with
something you have learned,
You can not be taught in a day,
things in a lifetime you have earned.

Live your life for today.
What more is there to say?
There can be no tomorrows,
if there was no yesterday.

Look forward to the future,
hope that it does last.
Enjoy your life on earth today
While to memories, cling fast.
