I can't remember it clearly, but it went something like this:

"The past is the past, the future is the furture. But now, now is like a gift, which is why it is called present."

The author's comments:
I'm a beginner at writing poetry.
I got inspired by looking out of my window and seeing the clouds and trees. I was thiking about how our world is supposed to die in a couple years. I added some selfish things, but with a need like money because it's both a want and a need and I'm sure we will all miss our world when it's gone.

I agree! I couldn't think of what to replace it with. If I found out how to edit the whole article without deleting it and reposting, I would.

I love the poem, and the repetition of the items. I just think that maybe you should change the last line, because I don't think it fits in with the poems theme.
