~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~
With all the sadness in the world
The
uncertainty, pain and sorrow
How this day
ended
Could make a difference, for
tomorrow
Awake, at morning sun
The day is
like a brand new empty slate
But, do we carry
upon us
Yesterday's, heavy weight
Some
have not a choice in this
What happened
yesterday, no one could avoid
And, before they
knew it
Life before them, destroyed
Do
we worry, not of tragedy
Because of where we're
at
The unforeseen can be upon us
In an
instant, just like that
Perhaps not in such
a massive way
At this moment in your life, all
could be right
But, then there's a knock at
your door
Or a phone call, in the middle of the
night
Would we live today a little
different
If, at the beginning, we knew the
end
Would we be kinder, wiser, more
giving
Or is there a relationship, we need to
mend
As I see, planes fly into
buildings
Earthquakes, tidal waves, floods,
wars
Yes, more and more earthly distress
Time spent at the computer
Has been
less
Less, because ......
Will my family
be here tomorrow
Will my friends be ....
And
the last question, I ask
What about me?
I
find myself calling my parents everyday
And
even though I've always hugged my kids
before
All of a sudden .....
They have been
getting a lot more
No, I'm not living my
life in gloom
Not at all
It's just a reality
check .....
Everything can be going along
fine
Then, all of a sudden, your whole life can
fall
So, I ask again ....
This day
....
How would we spend
If we knew, at the
beginning
How it would end
