Don't Stay In The Past Poem by Frank Adie

There is no future in the past
Leave the past behind and move forward
Those who step forward have victory at last
Don't stay in the past and lose your reward.

You can do so much to change the future
Nothing you can do to change the past
Affliction is inherent in nature
It must not make you feel like an outcast.

When the storm of life knock you down
Dust yourself up and take another shot
You will overcome if you do not backdown
Don't let despair keep you on the same spot.

Take a bold leap towards your dream
Life is an ever flowing stream
Don't be a mere flotsam in the river of life
Life delivers success to all who overcome its strife.
