No Promises

Don't put life on hold until tomorrow live your life today never put off what you mean to say regretful that words were never spoken Be a shining light lighting up the world glowing like the stars in the heavenly sky say goodbye to yesterday for yesterday has come and gone Love like you have never loved give like you have never given share and expect nothing in return no promises are given for a tomorrow.

thanks Annelise for your wishes. We got dumped on yesterday with snow up to the knees. We needed the snow as we did not have much rain in the summer and not a lot of snow until now. love phyl
