Tomorrow.....Tomorrow Poem by Valsa George

Tomorrow.....Tomorrow

Rating: 5.0


Tomorrow I shall see the birth of the awaited dawn
Though today it seems I am locked in a midnight zone
Tomorrow I will not walk into the dread of the night
But shall be led by the blazing light

Tomorrow I will carry my yoke manfully
And never recite the litany of my woes mournfully
Tomorrow I shall slow down and stop by the mountain side
And watch the silvery stream, joyfully down way glide

Tomorrow I shall seize every chance that comes my way
And never wait for them to fall on another day
Tomorrow I shall be out of my prison cell with discord round
And shall enter a palace with joys abound

Tomorrow I shall willingly partake of another's grief
And never seek solely my own relief
Tomorrow I shall wait for the calm that follows the storm
And not grumble in haste that life is a withering dream

Tomorrow I shall look beyond the clouds of gathered gloom
And see for myself the beauty of stars that in hundreds bloom
Tomorrow amid hostilities I shall keep alive the sparks of friendship
And never mourn the absence of anyone for companionship

Now in a tone so teasing I heard someone say to my utter surprise
"Your resolutions sound so good, but what if tomorrow doesn't arise?

A beautiful poem with positive hopes has been so impressively and aptly delineated. I mark the following lines much impressive. Tomorrow I shall seize every chance that I come my way And never wait for them to fall on another day Tomorrow I shall be out of my prison cell with discord round And shall enter a palace with joys abound.

Do whatever that need to be done for today for tomorrow may not get here. If tomorrow happens to appear then try to spread some bounteous cheer. A very thoughtful write.
