We know not what tomorrow will bring or even if it will come around No, we know not what tomorrow will bring or if hard luck will be found We know not if the sun will shine and bring happiness to our heart Or if the storms of life will come and cause deep sadness to start We know not if tomorrow comes if in this life we make a new mistake Or if we'll make it through the day when if the sun shall break We know not if when we lay down to sleep if the next breath we will take Or when our loved ones go out the door if we'll hear again the footsteps they make We know not if the last word we say to loved ones will be the last So let us say kind words and I love you's so we won't regret what came to pass Then if our loved ones we do not see or ever hear their sweet words sing Let us make the most of each moment we have for we know not what tomorrow will bring [This message has been edited by garysgirl (02-15-2003 09:15 PM).] |

oh wow...lol I can't think of anything to say but...wow!!!! Very powerful poem...VERY moving. I can't wait for the next chance to arrive for me to let someone know I love them!! Thank you very much for sharing that  I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man. |

(smiles) Oh Ethel, this is gorgeous, sweet friend, yes, we must love like there is no tomorrow with every cell in our bodies, as they say, "Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we'll die". (big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Ethel, there is a very beautiful saying that you have paraphrased very well here. The saying is "I know not what the future holds but I am unafraid, for I know who holds the future." Thank you for the reminder. Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |
