Tomorrow never comes but years do

Tomorrow never comes but years do

A Poem by andrew mitchell

In the space
of yesterday
I found myself
travelling today
never reaching
tomorrow.

my good Padre told me "Gene, just keep your mind on what you are doing in the moment." ... well .. not his exact words; but that's the gist of it. It's no wonder I do things like turn the TV on with my phone .. or can't find the dog leash I hung behind my head ... oh ... brother ... I could go on with a litany of those yesterdays driving around looking for tomorrows .. love your stuff man! be well ... :)

Thank you kindly Gene, nice to hear from you and yes I’m like that lol.
Time takes its own time, it's we human tornados that mis-use it, using what's there as if it is the LAST DAY ! Why not sit, stand or slowly walk, looking, gazing, seeing what could go in second if fire erupted, if a hurrican or tsunami swallowed it whole. Time to savour, inhale, learn and remember. With your words in mind and your need for the ever could be-can be we might never starve. Thank you for a life-long gift, Vol,

Am so sorry, recovering from flu.. my mind has flunked common sense, andrew! :)
And the calendar years are piling on. We seem to be on the same ride, Andrew. Perhaps at different times of the day and from different stops. I seem to have a season rail pass on me as well 🙏🏻🕊

Thank you Stella
One never knows if tomorrow will come. We hope that it will but for some it does not.
