"Today Not Tomorrow"

Tomorrow’s sky will never show,
Such Beauty, as it did today,
The way the sun "sets" and "rises",
Will happen in a different way.
The rain may fall again upon me,
Though it won’t taste or feel the same,
The wind may be calm and gentle,
Yet it still won’t recite your name.
The world will keep on turning,
As though it knew no other way,
It won’t have realised how beautiful,
It was just Yesterday....

Very very beautiful and much enjoyed.

In the midst of winter..
I found there lives within me,
an invincible summer.

Classic...I like this, the feel and the presentation both.

I agree...I have noticed this, too. You've done a wonderful job describing it, getting the feeling out. ~K~
