TO-MORROW, what does it matter? To-daythat is here! To lend or to spend for my purpose All without hindrance or tear, To-day only mattersto-morrow's A dream and a fear! To-morrow, I never shall own it To-daythat is mine! What if I take it and make it To something divine! So shall I never fear sorrow, Dear Time, if you go soon or stay, So shall I fear no to-morrow And gratefully live each to-day! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ELEVEN EYES: FINAL SECTION by LYN HEJINIAN THE FATALIST: COME OCTOBER by LYN HEJINIAN THE FATALIST: HOME by LYN HEJINIAN THE FATALIST: TIME IS FILLED by LYN HEJINIAN SLOWLY: I FREQUENTLY SLOWLY WISH by LYN HEJINIAN ALL THE DIFFICULT HOURS AND MINUTES by JANE HIRSHFIELD A DAY IS VAST by JANE HIRSHFIELD FROM THIS HEIGHT by TONY HOAGLAND CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS by ANNETTE WYNNE |
