Your Today

Wish I could change the here and now
With the twinkling of an eye
By merely going back in time
To change events that have gone by.

Wishing that I might try again
But time past is now history
Want that same opportunity
But the future's a mystery.

And I've found that men who fail
Started playing the wisher's part
Allowing chances to slip on by
While sadly missing a fresh start.

Learn to be content with what is
Witness each day as heaven sent
Because your today is a gift
That's why they call it the present.
