From the past to tomorrow

The treasures that are buried in your past,
Add to the richness found in tomorrow.
Although that time of your life could not last,
The memories are there to borrow.
You can delve into them and rummage round,
For what is in there can help with today.
Where past experiences can be found,
Tomorrow’s footsteps can find their way.

Both the present and the past are in you,
Let the two find their future together.
They will lead you to a glorious view,
Where the soul can wander through the heather.
Where the river of hope flows through the heart,
And your love can rejoice in the sunlight.
Together they will show you where to start,
Along tomorrow’s path, all clear and bright.
