We have no time to
Spend in the past, memory,
We must invest in
What is at this time present
For now is here, happening.
Tomorrow may be
What is coming, but it is
Still a day away –
Today, with its dire troubles
Or sweet pleasures, is enough.
Yesterday ashes,
Tomorrow draped in clouds, mist,
We will live this day,
Building, realizing dreams
With our best abilities.
