Sweep the good into Tomorrow

Sweep the good bits of today into tomorrow,
Leaving all of the bad bits of the past behind.
You can abandon all of yesterday’s sorrow.
For there’s a better life out there for you to find.

Just take a pause from this life you are living in,
Then from out of life’s cupboard, take hold of time’s broom.
Sweep aside all of yesterday’s mess trapped within,
So you can give your life here today some more room.

Sweep off those cobwebs of gloom hanging on your past.
Let the breeze of hope blow life’s dark shadows away.
Toss out all of yesterday’s dreams that did not last,
And move the good bits from your past into today.

Tomorrow is waiting beyond today’s deep night,
Ready to bring into your life, a better view.
As the dawn breaks and tomorrow comes into sight,
Sweep in the good bits, and start off on the new.
