Today

Author: Robert Paisley
Year: Hope

Today was about fruition,

The planting of a seed.

The framing of a picture,

Of a picture of a moment.

A moment,

Amongst a sea of moments.

The turning point,

A starting point,

A step,

Amongst the tide of steps.

An acknowledgement of

Potential futures,

Of all the futures and their potentials.

Before today,

It was just another day on a board.

And now today stands,

As every other stands,

A memory added to the hoard.

Richer for its planting,

Brighter for its lighting,

And better,

For what tomorrow will be of its making.
