This Moment, This Second--By Barbara Tate--United States

This Moment, This Second

I'm looking for forever
but finding just today
with trees dripping last night's rain
what am I to say?

Forecast calls for ice tonight
even though it's spring
read it in the Almanac
what will tomorrow bring?

No sense looking past right now
not for me to say
just this moment, just this second
living for today.

Barbara Tate is an award-winning artist and writer, originally from Akron, Ohio, currently residing in Tennessee.  She is a member of the Haiku Society of America & Gulf Coast Writers Assoc. "I want to wish each and every one a very Merry Christmas and an inspirational and productive New Year.  I am so grateful to the wonderful people I have met through my writing.  Thank you all.
