Tomorrow

When each day dawns it starts another page
Without a mark to spoil the pristine white
Though yesterday had left you in a rage
The past is washed away by sleep at night
Do not forget the faults they help you learn
But throw away the blame and carry on
The future is a gift too rich to spurn
Too pure to spoil with troubles that are gone
Although you know that what I say is true
It can be hard to live without remorse
Remember then the promise of the new
When life provides a far from easy course
It only takes a smile to bid “Good day”
And you will find you’ve waved the past away
