I woke up early this morning
saw the little time passing
looked at the flowers before me laying
gazed at the birds singing
Went inside, outside, inside again
searched for yesterday to gain
grabbed tomorrow to attain
but all my struggles lay in vain.
Then i saw the youngest creature
which in its nature
tells the past and predicts the future
i settled down here to venture.
I implored my faculties to lay
and fulfill my endeavors without delay
hoping for no precious day but today
to clear all that i could pay.
Today has no duplicate
therefore do not procrastinate
for yesterday time stole it away
tomorrow who knows its way?
but today is the only day in your abode
it is the youngest of all creatures of God.
