I was on the phone today with an old friend and we were discussing living in the moment. It put me in mind a poem I had written in 2012. I had a look at and decided I needed to rewrite it. If you would like a look at the original it is here.

Dream not of today
That is what the wise men say
Fear not for yesterday it is gone
Taking what you should of done,
Like a thief it made off at a run.
Dream not of today
Waste not your time on dreams
Be quick make fast your schemes.
Reach not too hard into the future
It’s not yet come,
Don’t waste time on things
You can’t know, nor will be done.
Dream not of today
It is not here to stay.
Hold not on to that which cannot last
These things end up in the past
Run your best!
You will fail like the rest.
You can not out run time
It’s part of the plan sublime.
Dream not of today.
Don’t let your life slip away.
Chase each and every chance
Sing, love, be honest and dance.
