Today Was the Second Best Day Ever

"Best day ever!" I had a habit of sayin' After another day of plentiful playin' Then came the dawn. This here day's gone! Tomorrow's the best 'cause this'n ain't stayin' ~ Today can only be the best Until it takes a nighttime rest Tomorrow's task For all. To bask In the shadow of a new day's breast

I always knew that, but it took me a long time to decide to live that way. Never too late though, eh? Cheerios!

Today is the best day ever John as we never know if we will wake to see 'tomorrow' we can only hope - From the title I thought the poem was about me not 'leaving' oh how wrong can a gal be she says with firmly tongue in check lol lol :-) hugs jan xx

My mountain biking partner and I have so many great rides we always say "best day ever!" I decided since we can expect tomorrow's ride to be even more awesome, then today is second best. (a little too much of an inside joke;-). (Or attitude:-) I never once doubted your zinger. You couldn't leave or tomorrow wouldn't come and I wouldn't be sipping coffee and being silly this morning:) Cheermiskins and huggadooskies! ~ j
