no tomorrows

take it as it comes
welcome happenstance
maybe you and I don't fit
normal notion circumstance

try to think outside the box
of forever a "next day"
perhaps then, we two can share
a happy life "come what may"

throw away the schedule
of the things you want to do
ride a wave of spontaneity
each moment will be new

get caught up in the tide
there are no lessons how
it only takes imagination
to be aswim in the now

if you choose to follow down
the road that I am on
never will be turning back
from now on, we'll be gone

when you've come to realize
just as I did, long ago
I'll see the answer in your eyes
it's off to our world we go

so, let me take you by the hand
we'll dance along a golden sand
of our eternal wonderland
without a single second planned

life will be a big surprise
we'll never set a goal
with every breaking sunrise
it's all beyond control

well....how 'bout it lady?
wanna take a ride?

Hi, hedistuff,
With a nod to the past and hope in the future, may we all get caught up in the tide...to be swimming in the now. Today is where the action is. Thank you for sharing.
