Today
 
Today’s not what we see
Today’s come after ten summers
Today’s not what we expect
Today’s told us to take I-turn
 
Today’s what I believe
Today’s what we count
As it merely records happiness
 
I do, really, I do thank to someone for today
Not for its simple outcome, but for it’s
Coinciding with every hope
 
Today should be the day
As the day evokes!

Time is such a tyrant to many people, and yet does time really exist! ? Its just a thing to control us all really lol
This is amazing Raja, love :)
You have summed or seized the moment in a metaphorical blitz of sheer lushness lol
Love this a lot!

Time is a funny thing. Most measure it in linear streams but I do not find truth in a beginning or an end but in the continuation of being. As sure as every mind is certain that the body will die, every soul is certain that the spirit will live or else our every moment would be spent in terror. But the soul will not have it. The soul knows its own eternity like the mind knows the fragile shell that holds the spirit. Today. tomorrow and yesterday are only sand in an hourglass but there is no time between souls that reach to touch each other.

Reading, feeling, thinking about your words and what today means to me. You evoke a past, present, and future element to each moment we live. Excellent write!

Today is yesterday's tomorrow and tomorrow's yesterday .. grammatically and, in the space of time.

This is a thought-provoking poem.. again, brief but full of thoughtful phrases. What we have today is something to be thankful for and, it's been coming and coming.. to be enjoyed and to learn from

Thank you for sharing. I'll go on thinking about this poem.
