Your Time, Your Heart

Yesterday is a world away
Yesterday may as well be yesteryear
Yesterday is in the past, history.
Yesterday is gone, it will never return.

Tomorrow is another world
Tomorrow is a dream 
Tomorrow is always too near, never here.
Tomorrow is promise and desire.

Today is now.
Today is here.
Today is real.
Today is fear.

Remember the good of yesterday
Dream like tomorrow is yours
Live today with your heart and this world is yours.

AYP, Interesting timepiece in this poem. Tomorrow gleaned only in promissory notes, even the rich fail to negotiate. Today is a ball-pean hammer to dodge. Yesterday is all we own. It has been bought and paid for, rich or poor. Yes, it's true it will never return. Yet fondly recalled 'til time itself packs it in. Happy New Year wishes. -Richard
