IN PRAISE OF TOMORROW

Without it life would have no meaning, it is a place we seem to aim for.

Amid all the pressures

the ups and the downs

there always seems

a way around,

around the most

obnoxious of pains

tomorrow always

seems to offer great gain.

Perhaps it is teasing

prompting our plans

indulging our own

expectations.

Maybe it offers

great hope to achieve

to rise above

relise our dreams,

yet I think it sobers

all to stand still

remove self from the picture

consider Gods will.

He has a tomorrow

that he has bespoke

tailored to be

what we have not.

Sufficent it is

that still tomorrow exists,

for when it comes

choose now to live,

hide not in shadows

in fear of your means

no gold, nor jewels

will be in need.

The Earth stands forever

so God had it written

to be inhabited

and not to be forgotton,

it was part of tomorrow

in Gods final plan

a paradise Earth

where a new tomorrow

will have begun.
