Tomorrow’s Today

I thought it was tomorrow
today
I thought it was a work day
today
When I woke up and made my cup
today
I realized it’s not Monday
today
I took my hot cuppa
sat down on my sofa
today
I celebrate
this is my day
today
I treat this day with honor
today
I will likely have a naptime
today
I will honor my peace
today
I plan to do peace everyday
today

  1. I appreciate the bead and rhythm you got with this repetition of “today” through your poem. This reminds me of a project I had my students do every summer when we were in Austria. The assignment was to write a poem with the title, “This is I, Today.” I like your poem because it brings the reader in to the past, present and future – the actions as well as the intentions and the looking back on what was and at the same time looking ahead to what will be or is intended to be.
