Best Here Today Gone Tomorrow Poems
Here Today Gone Tomorrow
I knew one day
you'd spread your wings
you'd take my heart
when you cut
our strings
through the years
Id daydream alot,
worried about that day
then I'd think to myself
"She's a well rounded girl
with brains to boot,
eh she'll be okay"
Now it's all changed
as that day is here
the anxiety of a...

Hare Today, Gone TomorrowOne day I was sitting in a field
Ogling at my afternoons yield
When across the road I seen
A lovely meadow so green
Cars don't see fur as a shield

Hair Today, Gone TomorrowHair today, gone tomorrow, it's starting to thin really fast
Thought I'd be one of those centurions with locks down past my ass
Think again, old fellow
You're starting to turn yellow
Don't want to pass on till my youthful appearance does pass

Here Today, Gone TomorrowSomeone once gave me advice
That same person cared
More than I realized at the time
Now forever a memory
One slowly fading with time
Know that I love you
And miss you everyday
My lifeline to the world.
A constant unwavering presence
Never will I find again
One so honest and open
The truth never...

Here Today Gone Tomorrow a Tribute To President John Fitzgerald KennedyAnd there for one brief moment
Was our light
Shining strong
And shining bright
Bringing us new signs of hope
With courage
And the gift to cope
He left us when he's needed most
Returning to the Blessed Host
With caring grace
And love of man
This leader came
Did all he can
All must remember...

Here Today Gone TomorrowIf i died today would you remember me tomorrow?
Would your heart be left in constant sorrow?
Would you cry for me as you wore that black gown?
Would your smile turn upside down?
Would you pray for me to be in a better place?
Would you put my ashes...

Here Today, Gone TomorrowThis sonnet was inspired while celebrating my daughter’s birthday. Everyone was eating
cake except me. I hardly ever eat sweets. “A moment on the lips, forever on the hips”.
Anyway, while they were enjoying the moment, I began to muse. Later that evening I
composed this:
My daughter is...

Here Today, Gone TomorrowHere today, gone tomorrow
Too often comes as a surprise
From the joy to the sorrow
All can happen overnight
What you have that you hold onto
Often can slip out of hand
Be it old or be it brand new
Be it life or be it death
Here today, gone tomorrow
