Days

https://newwhatsgoingon.blogspot.com/2026/04/yesterday-today-and-tomorrow.html

Yesterday is a benevolent dream

It flowed like a river, clear and full of fish

Birds on the banks calling

I can’t say it was different or bold

But it was my day

And for that I am thankful

Today is another path to tread

Perhaps there will be contentment

An afternoon nap

A bar of chocolate

A cup of tea

A feeling that for now

Things are well

Tomorrow is too far ahead to think of

I can only hope that it will come

Another chance

Another spun penny –

Good or bad

I will weather what ever comes my way

That is the pattern of my days.

    I love that contended feel that begins with Yesterday and passes through Today and ends with hope in the Tomorrow section. A good one, Jae. Love this new site.

    A new site, a new life, with yesterday “a benevolent dream.” “The pattern of your days seems safe and content. May the spun penny continue to turn up good! Thank you for this poem.
