A simple and direct way of saying what you had to say. There are only three days; yesterday, today and tomorrow. I think you brought that message home well.

Hello, DaGirl. I like the creativity of this contest entry.
And it has a wonderful spiritual meaning, which is not easy to get across in a short poem of this style. Well done! Bev

Very well said! It's obvious when we see it written but in our everyday life, we don't think that much about it! Today is yesterday's tomorrow! Good luck... hugs, Jack xxxxxxxx

Hello DaGirl and welcome to the site; I thank you for sharing your profound, thought provoking verse and I agree with the theme, we must learn from our yesterdays to make our tomorrows better.

This poem just made me smile. I loved the poetic nature and the truth in it. It is a very original thoughts process for such a very short piece of poetic art... John

It certainly meets the standard for a 5-7-5 poem. I'm not so sure I totally understand how the fueling from yesterday will make tomorrow because yesterday is gone we can't get it back ever... the only thing we can do is change what is right now. That is what should drive your tomorrow. But good luck with your writing.

Thanks! Though i figure life has multi-dimensions to it and i totally agree with your way of thinking.
However, this is used relating to the mechanism behind driving a car. The filling of your tank yesterday (when you started the journey)guarantees how far you have gone today and hopeful you can get to your destination tomorrow (not considering that real fuel finishes)..
I think i will add some lines along these thoughts to my notes.
Thanks alot!
