How elusive is this thing
Called “The Present,”
For it is relentlessly
Becoming The Past,
While The Future takes over
The Present.
We are counseled to live
In The Present,
We even counsel others to,
“Be present” in The Present.
Yet Today always becomes
Yesterday remembered,
And Tomorrow
Is already Today.
And Someday,
In Eternity,
Will be—will be a
Perfect memory!
