Regrets Poem by Paul Warren

Yesterday has gone away
Other days have gone that way
What you did and what you said
Has been left and put to bed

For time itself marches on
In a blink of an eye it is gone
There will be times when you will wonder
If you could have done better as you ponder

For regret can colour your day
As you go through was there a better way
Such consideration will make no difference in the end
And your position may be hard to defend

Just let it go and it will die
To be crushed and crumbled without a cry
Stand tall and face the oncoming day
Stronger for lessons learnt that way.
