I Remember Yesterday

I Remember Yesterday I remember yesterday, but I won't forget today. Yesterday I lived and made many mistakes. I lived moments of love. I lived moments of sorrow and moments of despair, but I also lived moments of joy. Today I'm still living - what I thought, I never would. One of my dreams has come true. What can I say - dear God I owe all that to you. Tomorrow, I will not think about. I won't make any plans. I don't know if it will come. Tomorrow is up to you, for today my job has been done. My life is a gamble everyday. I will remember yesterday, but I will not forget today... 06/27/2014 By Lucilla M. Carrillo ,center>

Thank you very much. May I say that you write beautiful. The thing that makes poetry beautiful is - that everybody writes different.

Thank you Andrea; Things are a little better but I still can't do too much for six weeks I have to wear my arm on a sling. The doctor says It will take at least 2 months for me to start feeling the difference.
