Day-To-Day

Today I saw a gentle wind blow through the trees. I heard the song of birds on the wing. I thought I tasted sweet honeysuckle flowers. I felt the dew on the new grown grass. I caught a faint whiff of fruit from an orchard. Yesterday I saw a rough breeze fling soot into the air. I heard a deep, sorrowful silence. I tasted death and despair on my tongue like bitter medicine. I felt the dead branches and brambles under foot. I could smell the world rotting around me. It’s amazing how the world can change from day to day And how much we try and forget yesterdays wrongs but can’t.
