A Poem To Past

Knowledge has always been and always will be power

From the books we read to the drawings we create

Each piece of art reflects both the past and the future

What our forefathers and mothers went through

The journey we must take in life

In the same way as repairing a damaged clock and then startingit at midnight would be absurd

Previous generations’ wisdom is sought for

What they went through in love, what they did on their journeys

They met their true love in a dream

They picked the correct one out of a large pool of candidates

Newly planted trees are what we’re after

The throne in the centre of our hearts is vacant, and we seek therightful occupant

That’s how things have always been

One of the many ways in which life puts us to the test

A gateway along the path we go

Despite progress, there is still a long way to go

Maintaining forward progress is essential

Make the most of the chances life gives you

It’s the same no matter where we go

A museum of the past may be found everywhere

Unless we ignore their monuments and mirrors

Nothing about the future is visible to us at this time

To find our path forward, we must first examine our past

Taking a good look at the situation can help us plan for thefuture
