Between Yesterdays and Tomorrows

Between yesterday’s memories
And tomorrow’s expectancies—
                                             Lies the today

Yesterdays bring sweet wistfulness
With tomorrow comes hopefulness—
                                             Verity stays

While the hours-days- months-years parade
Quietly moves forward and past fades—
                                             Clocks ticks away

There remains a dream to fit in
Somewhere; somehow; someday begins—
                                              What can one say?

Between past participation
And future’s anticipation—
                                               Mind is at play

There must be a day that transcends
When yesterday-tomorrow blend—
                                               Until – someday
