Bow to the Past's Shadow! by RPSaxena
ABAB Poetry Contest contest entry

The past always casts a shadow on the present
And we should never forget this crude fact;
This truth survives in life as in rose resides scent
And we’ve to grasp its gist with astute tact!

Here, there, anywhere whatever we see today,
It’s an upshot of nature and our deeds;
Enjoy peace, progress, prosperity on life’s way
But, first sow wisely their prolific seeds!

Always remember: As you sow, so shall you reap
And it mirrors ‘cause and effect theory’;
Stir your past deeds where verity lies half asleep
And displays ways to success and glory!

Recall: History leads the wise and drags the fool,
It’s an old saying, but still holds water;
Let’s learn from it as we do from the nature’s rule
And feel quite free from any disaster!
