Theme -1)  If you could look into your future and choose 
one day to see what would happen, what day would that be,
and why...

Brunfelsia Pauciflora - Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow Plant

I often think about tomorrow- another day of life to borrow; to live it at my best and hope that I may rest, as each is stored in yesterday. Made up of joy, along with sorrow, inside my book of life, they lay. A special gift is my tomorrow, that lays the page for new today. I often think about tomorrow- how many more will come to follow. My years in spring held more- an open, endless shore. What was not done, I tucked away, to work again- not left to fallow, for waiting was another day. A special gift is my tomorrow- that lays the page for new today. I often think about tomorrow- of what the future ones foreshadow. My winter years hold less; each one I live, caress- express my thanks in every way, and hope my end-of-line last 'morrow births everlasting life, I pray- For on that day, no more tomorrow- at peace with God, my soul will stay.
