A day gone is a day lost.
Lost and gone forever.

We cannot walk back
to that day, dropped
only a short week ago.

Pick it up,
dust it off,

and smile at our good fortune
as we pocket it, ready
for some more needful time.

Surely we can, doesn't that day become a memory, if it was a good day then smile away whenever you think of it, if it was a bad day remember it and learn from the experience. You have the germ of a good poem here, just a slightly different viewpoint is needed. I hope you don't mind my reasoning. Good Luck. (-; Val
