What’s past is past
Dwell on the past
and squander the present
The present is ever evolving
It is on a continuous journey
moving on, no returns
Use it or lose it
It cannot be bartered or
sold as stocks
It is here this minute and
gone in another
The past is part of our being
The present like a fire pit
ignites our dreams and feelings
The past can transcend
It cannot be changed
