THE GIFT OF TODAY!

THE GIFT OF TODAY!

When we were so little

The days seemed long

But as we grew older

Another theme song..

There were such events

That may have been sad

And others instead

We wish that we had

Then there were people

Who you came across

Who opened your eyes

When they suffered a loss

It didn’t seem fair

It just wasn’t right

It made no sense

What others thought right

You tried many things

And changed your mind too

You may have felt

A bigger loss too

A part of yourself

Is taken away

When you always live

In this yesterday

There is no joy

The further you go

Away from the self

Who all of you know

In order to live

You must honour this self

It knows all you are

In spite of yourself

The more you do cry

And shed many tears

The more it remains

For so many years

So stop and remember

Right here and right now

Forgive all there is

For you must allow

That in order to stand

You must know that you fall

In order to walk you must

First learn to crawl

What held you back

Is history today

It doesn’t belong

In the gift of today!
