What Is There Today

What you see today
Might be just a fake ray
And be not as they say
Or it might just be a fake way

What you hear today
Probably has not come to stay
For who knows if it pay
Even if it comes to you in golden tray

What you taste today
If whenever in your belly it relays
Like a running train with no delay
Not every plant grows in the month of may

The path you walk today
Might just not be okay
Shouldn't or should you dance in gay
Most green succulents always become hay

Don't relent on what you see today
Listen, watch but don't take the play
If its hard carving diamonds then use clay
Never lose hope, don't let the dreams of tomorrow decay

Hi White Sage, I Love the way you give hope at the end of the poem my friend. I always like poetry that has a rather positive ending, leave the reader with hope and that you do. There is a flip side to every coin my friend and you show us the flip side. Things may be bad but they can always get better. Hang on to those dreams of tomorrow and a new dawn does always shine. These are just a few things i see in your write. A seven from me my friend....Vladislav.

"Don't let dreams of tomorrow decay" is best of lines filled with hope and promise of something good in the making. Happy New Year with peace and prosperity. Thanks for stopping by with your warmth.
