Only Today

Praveen Kumar February 2, 2007 1 min read

Whatever I may want to do It must be done today. There is no other time.

Yesterdays are but todays Used and gone beyond my grasp. Not one can ever be brought back;

Even as a bell can't be unrung Or a spoken, unintended word Be readily retrieved before It reaches someone's ear.

Tomorrows are todays awaiting birth. Each comes unbidden in the night To arrive full-fledged for me to use And do whatever I may want to do.
