Today

How do I move From yesterday to today Without losing myself in our tomorrows An old song reverberates within my chest Yesterday was it's very best Within your arms today I'm blessed When I look in your eyes I lose my breath Tomorrow's not promised I know that's true Still I feel my future is made for two You with me and me with you So I'll lose myself in yesterday Tomorrow's a gift for which I'll pray Yet the gift I'll treasure most is our today

Beautiful and romantic. Each day is a priceless gift, that's why it is called the present.

Yes, tomorrow is not assured us. That is why we need to make most of each and every day. This is coming home more and more to me as I age....opportunities missed, dreams unfulfilled....love not shared. No time for regrets...Wonderful write, Richard...as always.

Today is always the most important day of our lives, whatever we do in our today affects all our tomorrows. Deep write Rick. Take care, Richard

this is beautifully written Richard...I think we all need to carry the good of yesterday into the now of today because tomorrow may be too late! if only every day was as lovely as your poem :)
