Moving Forward Poem by Randy McClave

Always look forward
As I was once told, my son,
That is where your happiness is stored
And where life and adventure always comes from.
The pain and the worries are left behind,
And why? It is because God is kind.

Always look strait ahead
That is where you will find your greatest prize,
Please remember what I have said
This truth someday you will realize.
The Devil wants you to look back at your past,
So, at your journey he can mock and laugh.

Always precede strait
Don't keep looking back or you will wreck
Remember my son, it is never to late
Moving ahead should be your happiest trek.
Don't continual to look behind or glance in the mirror
Remember, you are here.

Always precede forth
Understand where you are destined and going,
Whether it be west, east, south or north
Your knowledge will continue growing.
Remember always use the forward gears,
Always onward, their is less sadness, worries and tears.
