Today

Never know about tomorrow.

         Can’t rely on yesterday

                 To catch the brass ring of forever

                          On this busman’s holiday.

Sweep the floor of dusty sorrows.

         Cannot use them anyway.

                 Damn the foil of stormy weather

                          If it dares get in the way.

Do not be afraid to borrow.

         You’ll repay the debt someday

                 Before the beast of leave-me-never

                          Comes to steal your soul away.

Even when the path is narrow

         And the sky turns steely gray

                 Hope will rise with feathered wings

                          On gentle breezes of today.
