Today
today was not so bad
it got up early
put on its makeup and looked less sad
it broke for lunch at one
today was formal, yet it felt young
today was good
it had a heavy schedule
and went to bed early
it took some time out
and closed its eyes
and then the day was swallowed by dreams
but, it is alright, it seems
that was today
James Garratt – November 2000
