Act only when the sun starts to rise;
Dont think about tommorrows moon.
Next week won't be a suprise;
Tommorrow comes too soon.
Disregard the past;
and then avow.
Time so vast;
Today,
NOW.

You make such a good point... Now is the best place to be, but there are so many people out there living for yesterday and tomorrow... Well said. Perfect form, also... Impressive. -
WOW, this describes my life right NOW, I am trying to study but have so many other things to do that I find my self worring about a week from now and beyond. Great job, keep it up, thanks for sharing.

I am extremely fond of time and memory and how each plays upon us throughout life. I agree the past is past.
I like the way this is presented, it says what many might take and entire page to say [ myself included sometmes ] and says it all in clear terms... leaving a strong point at the end...
Nicely written.
