FROM YESTERDAY UNTIL TODAY

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.
