Todays Dream

Today is of the utmost importance
It depends upon your performance
It may start with laughter or a cry
And end with a loving kiss or a sigh

But for today you are in control
Of the destiny of your own soul
Your yesterday's are forever gone
You may never see tomorrow's dawn

But today is here before you awake
And it's a present for you to take
Whether it is grey, cold and rainy
Or the sky blue, bright and sunny

Treat this day with respect and care
Tis a good time for our wealth to share
If it's only our uniqueness we can give
Or past grievances to others we forgive

What may you make of this opportunity
Will you contribute to life's community
Can you help anyone with a smile today
Be charitable and giving along your way

Tis no difference what today may bring
Heartache or joy that will make you sing
It's a chance to make the world brighter
Even if you bring only giggles an laughter

For whatever you do this day in your life
In this world so filled with pain and strife
It may help others in lightening their load
All may have a happier trip down this road

And if we're blessed with a tomorrow
I see a wrinkle of doubt upon your brow
Yes my friend there's never a guarantee
That the next sunrise or sunset you'll see

So in reality and truth today is here
Now is the time to spread good cheer
To help others burdened with a sorrow
For there may never be another tomorrow
