I give God thanks for today
For he helped me conquer yesterday
As I sat and devour a yesterday this morning
Reflecting on a dream I had, it was storming
...
It's a calm day,
The sky is bright blue.
Scattered with milky white clouds,
The sunlight illuminates
...
I see progress.
Looking at history and today,
A continuous progression of change
Measured not by a ruler
...
