Today Is Here

Today is taking my hand into the unknown. Dreams before my eyes, that I had called my own. The box of Yesterday with it's treasures that are mine, longing to be opened one more time. But Today urges me on and I gently lay it down. My heart is crying, but I don't make a sound. Before me is another, smaller and the ribbon is gold, reminds me of heaven and it's riches untold. I lift it's cover, a tear diamond is what I see, with the words of Jesus promises, meant for me. I put the box of Yesterday on a shelf in my heart, with the ribbon of Today's. A brand new start.
