Yesterdays goneA Poem by Derek AllenTomorrow comes, Today Fades, Yesterday drowns. Do not fear the change, for time only rolls on. In a distant shape past the shore, the sun dips into the sea below, only to rise once more as a different day Seas rise and rivers flow only to remain the same But the life within begs to differ Tomorrow came, Todays gone Yesterday is only a dream When the end has come for us All around will keep on marching We are but a scratch in ths life So tomorrow be thankfull for today Today beware of slips away and yesterday is gone forever © 2008 Derek Allen |
