Tomorrow Reborn as Today
TOMORROW REBORN AS TODAY
Dear Friends – we get taught to pay attention to the just here and the just now! However sometimes the just here and just now present is only bearable knowing that there is a tomorrow and it may bring some respite or relief from the challenges of today. Enjoy my verse reflections on tomorrow as today.
John B.
TOMORROW REBORN AS TODAY
Tomorrow is;
Always only ever and forever;
Never more than just a day away.
What could, would should;
Tomorrow boast, bring and bear;
What will it support, supply and sustain?
Are we willing;
Do we wish to;
Can we want to, wait for that tomorrow?
For tomorrow may be;
The place and time;
Of hope, of happiness of health and healing to come.
So, we may suffer and survive this day;
We may be with, bear with, bide with and breathe with and through this day;
More willingly, knowing that there will be the morrow of tomorrow.
Tomorrow will be;
Yet tomorrow will always only, ever and forever be;
Arrived to us as this day, to-day; as the just here and in the just now!
Like the caterpillar that dies,
To allow the life of the butterfly;
So too, tomorrow will die to become today!
