You have an interesting theme here with the importance of past history. I think it provides a foundation for so many other things in the future. Even a poor or shameful past is a learning experience if one wants to move forward.

A very well-written three-line poem about having a future we should recognise our past as part of who we are. The past may have many things we like to forget but it is who we are.

Wow. That's really powerful. I was just writing about war history (which I don't like!) and yet, it resonates with me because there are some countries which deny their past and it does ruin it for the future generations. Well done and best wishes in the contest!

I like it so much said in 3 little lines. The last line is witty and my favorite. A wonderful entry for the contest. The photo is a good choice as well. All the best, Laura.

You gave us a lot of truth in just a few words. I really, really like this. The problem is we too often know our past mistakes, but ignore them. Good luck in the contest.

This is very deep and I like it a lot. It offers a lot for the reader to contemplate from just three little lines. The picture is intriguing, as well. This is definitely a wonderful entry in the contest and I wish you the best!

Very nicely put. If we do not accept our past - both the successes and the failures- as a part of our future, we are living in denial. And we know how that goes. We're basically living a lie.

denying your past
is condemning your future
to flying half mast
As they say, how soon we forget. This is absolutely wonderfully done. Perfect in content

Oh, this one must have a 6! You have said SO much with your seventeen syllables. Your poem is realistic and thought-provoking. We can--must--
learn from our past.
