Poem Of The Month

Tomorrow Never Comes
by Norma Cornett Marek

If I knew it would be the last time that i'd see you fall asleep,
Iwould tuck you in more tightly and pray to the lord your soul to keep.

If I knew it would be the last time that i'd see you walk out of the door, Iwould give you a hug & kiss and call you back for just one more.

If I knew it would be the last time that i'd hear your voice lifted up in praise, i would tape each word and action and play them back thoughout my days.

If I knew it would be the last time, I would spare an extra minute or two, To stop and say "i love you", instead of assuming you know I do.

So just in case tomorrow never comes, and today is all i get, i'd like to say how much i love you, and I hope we never will forget.

Tpmorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike, and today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight.

So if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today?

For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day that you did't take the extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss. And you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish.

So hold your loved ones close today, and whisper in their ear, that you love them very much, and you'll always hold them dear.

Take time to say "I'm sorry", "Please forgive me", "thank you" or "its okay".

And if tomorrow nevr comes, you'll have no regrets about today.
