YESTERDAY- TOMORROW AND
- TODAY
The day before today has come and gone,
Each successive day shows a new morn!
But that day before today if well spent,
Brings happiness and cheer till our life’s
end!
The day after today will be another day,
What exactly lies ahead I can never say!
We can only sincerely hope and pray,
That the day after today should be a peaceful
day!
But the day before tomorrow is a very special
day,
It is here and now, with me to stay!
I embrace it warmly as a day I know,
Since I am living in it, a real time show!
It is a slice of that enigmatic eternity,
It is all I have for the moment, my
continuity!
So let me savor it, and revel in it, and
continue to be!
