Activity sheet on poem START WHERE YOU STAND

START WHERE YOU STAND
Start where you stand and never mind the past
The past wont help you in beginning new,
If you have left it all behind at last
Why, thats enough, youre done with it, youre through;

This is another chapter in the book,
This is another race that you have planned,
Dont give vanished days a backward look,
Start where you stand.

The world wont care about your old defeats
If you can start anew and win successes;
The future is your time, and time is fleet
And there is much of work and strain and stress;

Forget the buried woes and dead despairs,
Here is a brand-new trial right at hand,
The future is for him who does and dares,
Start where you stand.

Old failures will not halt, old triumphs aid,
To-days the thing, to-morrow soon will be;
Get in the fight and face it unafraid,
And leave the past to ancient history;

What has been, has been; yesterday is dead
And by it you are neither blessed nor banned;
Take courage, man, be brave and drive ahead,
Start where you stand.
