The Passages Of Time Poem by Audrey Heller

If I could turn back, the passages
of time, a happier person I'd be.
I'd never again, dwell on the past,
for it hasn't been that good to me.
Like most people, I've had my ups
and downs, but managed to stay
on top. It wasn't very easy, but it
was do, or die or flop. I'm glad
I'm made out of the good stuff,
as it helped make me the person,
I am today. You have to have a
lot of guts, to make sure you'll
come out okay. You have to give
yourself, a constant pep talk.
Saying, I'm as good as the rest.
And given time, it's going to
show. You proved to everyone,
you are, the best!
