WE HAVE TODAY

Remember yesterday as we ran through the fields of play,

Children of innocence had much to say, no worries of the day.

Tomorrow has no memory, are we even in its thoughts,

Tomorrow is our hope, we have today, only today.

For granted is taken the morning’s rising sun,

As we slip into slumber, will we awake in our beds.

We have today to breathe as we please, with our eyes we see,

Laugh today, hold on, and love as much as we can.

You are energy, you are the raging waters that flow never ending,

You are the sparkle in the sky, the shining star that never dies.

Strength and power are you, stand tall and touch the sky,

Close your eyes, feel as your courage reaches far and wide.

We have today, My hand reaches for you, I am with you.
