Este Es El Dia

ESTE ES EL DIA
(This Is The Day)
                                           

A day to use as you will
A beginning or an end
24 hours of chances
1440 minutes of consideration
Mostly disregarded
Attentive in the past
Dreaming of the future
Absent on what's present

I find this day a gift
So meaningful and perfect
I care to set an aura
To love throughout the day
To put my best foot forward
That I should display
To spend it than nothing
Yet, be proud of my mistakes

I think its more useful
Than, "no start at all"
The truth is, tomorrow is invisible
How far I go in life
Depends on my today
I welcome and discover
The value it proclaims
                                  
Today is a new day
When I am made new
The best of all moments
To find myself and start anew
Without this, who am I
Tomorrow...
On the next?...
Can't imagine where am I now
If today's out of the picture
            
To make the most of myself
I make the most out of today
Today my life will change
Mi tiempo... My time...
Mi lugar... My place...
"ESTE ES EL DIA".

Arden Gopela December 7, 2013 at 6:36 PM The time that man appreciates today is when something strange happens in his life. It maybe a disaster, a serious problem or an illness that will make him realize of his today. Today is being ignored most of the time - forgetting that without this day, there'll be no bridge that will lead us to the next. I miss poetrysoup. Been a while. I miss everyone. I thank every soupers being a part of my today. Mwah! Love,love,love! :-) - Den
