Today

Embers of tomorrow,

Glowing in the distance,

Bringing hope in the darkness,

For brighter days to come.

 

When tomorrow comes,

The glowing embers die,

Leaving us lost in the darkness,

Looking for new embers.

 

There will always be,

Glowing embers of tomorrow,

Always in the distance,

Never up close.

 

Moments of darkness,

Might seem to be forever dark,

But sometimes we can see,

The embers of today.

 

Glowing in front of us,

Just from a thought,

That today is the day,

Not looking for tomorrow.

 

Today is the moment,

The moment we are alive,

Glowing embers of today,

Might shine as bright as the sun.

 

Make your world the best you can,

Make it glow today,

You might be lost in tomorrow,

But today is the day.

Glowing embers, today is the day.
In a sensuous, magical way you
have touched your readers in a
manner that will live.
I keep going back to your poem.
The flavor and fragrance bring memories
of sweet and romantic, glowing days.
Thank you
