To Forget Is Good

To Forget Is Good

 

To forget can be a blessing

When bad has been done

And can keep from our minds

The things that have stunned

 

To forget can make us better

And leaves us a little room

To file the good away

To be enjoyed sometime soon

 

To forget is to allow

Our minds to delete

And throw into the trash

The things we should not keep

 

To forget is to heal

Our minds and our souls

From bad histories

Whether yesterday or old

 

To forget is to prune

All the bad away

And leave us with the good

Memories that never fade
