Today

Today is what matters, today is now Tomorrow is just a promise Forgotten somehow Today is the present Get in gear and explore Live out all your fantasies For tomorrow may be just a bore Today is this instance Tomorrow can change in a flash Grab life and air, big air Share your love till it lasts Today is for gain Right now make the call Say I am sorry or I love you!! For tomorrow is just a promise Forgotten somehow

Sweet...and true; life is today, for tomorrow is a promise that can't be broken and yesterday is already a vanishing dream.

Very well stated, Doris. You may have an appointment tomorrow but it doesn't mean we will be here to make it. Love your poem. Thanks for your comment on Heads Up. Sorry about your brother in law. I know the feeling I was on the edge of a couple of them myself. We watched as it took McConnel Air Force Base in Wichita, Ks away. Unbelieveable what nature can do. But she has had a lot of years to practice before there were humans involved. God Bless, Cile
