Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why?

Day Two in Santiago

Another busy day.

I’m bound up in the present

So hope this is ok?

---

I don’t dwell much upon the past

Or think too far ahead

I’ve sufficient on my plate

Dealing with today.

---

Here’s some words I did before

I hope they‘ll do today?

I had to drag them from the past

But hope they‘ll be o.k?

---

---

The past is past, it’s gone it’s flown.

No point dwelling on regret;

It won’t come back.

The chance’s blown.

---

For all we sit and sigh and groan.

However much we sit and fret.

The past is past, it’s gone it’s flown.

The things back then we wished we’d known.

---

Lessons we learned we won’t forget.

It won’t come back the chance’s blown.

There may be chances to atone

A different option, better bet.

---

The past is past, it’s gone, its flown.

We learned the lessons we have grown

The future hasn’t happened yet

There’ll be new chances not yet blown.

---

Let go the past, though don’t forget

We’ll grasp the future not yet met.

The past is past, it’s gone it’s flown 

The future we will make our own.
