The Power of Now

I tried the Power of Now today
A piece of peace I found
In that moment my mind was calm & at rest
It gave joy to my heart profound

I realized life is but made up of moments Like pearls strung on a string
It is memories of the past and fears of the future that makes the present sting

If I could but just live out each moment and take whatever comes
I am sure I will be relaxed and happy no matter what the outcome

If I could but just focus on the now and give the best I can
I am sure life would pan out better and move as per His divine plan

It is when the mind is cluttered with thoughts unwanted and burdens of the past
That negative feelings silently creep in and seem to forever last

I have chosen to focus on just the Now & let bygones be bygones
Live out each day ,sleep well at night for tomorrow is a fresh new Dawn

Yesterday is history,tomorrow is a mystery ,Today is a present
Treat it like the gift it is meant to be and Life will surely be pleasant.
