FROM YESTERDAY UNTIL TODAY
A child once was I, chasing butterflies, reaching for the sky,
Learning to ride a bike with the morning sun, my father close by.
Today is yesterday as I wake to the morning, a bowl of cereal, time for school,
A friend or two, we walk along a sidewalk that would grow old, we are now.
Slowly we were saying goodbye from each and every tire swing, Saturday cartoons,
Building a fort on a sunny afternoon, we were friends from a long time ago.
From yesterday are many thoughts and memories, I think of these today,
Yesterday we were a family which lived together, children and parents.
We were many as today we are scattered in different directions,
I recall being a boy, It seems like yesterday, yes! many yesterdays,
From yesterday until today We have changed with age, never the same.
Keith Garrett
and what will we become tomorrow?
Tomorrow is now today, thanks for reading.
