Every new day we sleep and wake
We rise to share today’s oneness of purpose
And not past clashes of interests;
To celebrate peace of the moment
And not wars of yester years
For today’s future not yesterday’s ruins,
To recount victories of the present
And not regrets of the past,
Every new day comes with new promises.

Yes it does! I love this line…
To recount victories of the present
And not regrets of the past,

Thanks Roth. I just poetically penned down my true feelings about celebrating promising days ahead rather than dwelling in the woeful failures and regrets of the past.
