It is a very beautiful poem written by the great poet, H.W.Longfellow. The lines 'Trust no future however pleasant Let the death Past bury its death Act, -act in the living present Heart within and God overhead' teaches us to live and act in the present.It teaches us to think neither of the future nor the past but to act in the present for it is in the present time that we still have time to do something.The poem further teaches us to have faith in God and to do our duty by putting our heart and soul.
