Today Is Here
Today is taking my hand into the unknown.
Dreams before my eyes, that I had called my own.
The box of Yesterday with it's treasures that are mine,
longing to be opened one more time.
But Today urges me on and I gently lay it down.
My heart is crying, but I don't make a sound.
Before me is another, smaller and the ribbon is gold,
reminds me of heaven and it's riches untold.
I lift it's cover, a tear diamond is what I see,
with the words of Jesus promises, meant for me.
I put the box of Yesterday on a shelf in my heart,
with the ribbon of Today's. A brand new start.
