Find Joy in the Present

Find joy in the present

For yesterday is gone, and

Tomorrow aint assured.

If you found happiness yesterday,

it was worth the while, but

that is stale milk now.

Lag not in the yester - but fly with the memories

perhaps, they can make today glad.

But if they be somber,

spit them out, like hot potato

and take a generous sip of the cold lemonade

served on your table today.

Keep your body, mind and soul healthy

for life may just surprise you with a million chances,

to live and see old age.

Well if it does, embrace the now

'coz if  you look too far ahead,

you may tire your vision

and make weary your spirit. 

Today is the gift -receive it with gratitude

and share some happiness-

with those living in your timeline.

Always remind them, that Today is the gift.

Peace!
