It really all happened today...

TODAY

Today, one tired boy couldn't make it to school.

Today, he was a little grumpy.

Today the light in the kitchen went out and

I couldn't fix it.

Today, one senior checked out of school

with mixed emotions.

Today, I wanted to spend more time with her and

Today I could not.

Today, my visitor caught me cleaning under the 

couch cushions.

Today the school called because one worried boy

wasn't feeling well before his speech and

Today they needed help

to figure it out.

Today we rushed to an appointment and

something got left behind.

Today, the newspapers couldn't get out

without my help and they were still 10 minutes late.

Today, an insensitive teacher 

made my daughter cry.

Today, the dog ran through the iris

and knocked off two of my favorite blooms still unopened.

Today they had been the only two there were.

Today I missed the concert so two tired boys could

go to bed on time.

Today I made a fool of myself at 

the front door.

Today it rained and the world felt dark

and I was alone,but

Someday......

Someday things will go better. In fact,

Someday the sun will shine and flowers will bloom

and music will ride on the breeze.

Someday I will feel calm,

quiet and content.

Someday I will remember joy....

I will even touch it.

Today I ache and I yearn and I miss

SOMEDAY.
