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

Tomorrow- Mixed



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.
