Today Was Once Tomorrow And Will Soon Yesterday Be Poem by Sidi Mahtrow

Today Was Once Tomorrow And Will Soon Yesterday Be



But wait my father,
There is time - yet. Go no futher,
But stay awhile with me
As we both search the sea.

For there is a ship I see on high
Sails set against a flowing tide
To reach a goal that has been set
Where men, women and children are met.

There joining in jubliant cheer
Holding together what is most dear
A union that knows no breaks
For we are All - As we awake.

Go not gentle into that good night
But bless the days when all is right.
Rage, rage, rage - not against the failing light
For together we have yet another war to fight.


Today was once tomorrow,
and will soon yesterday be.
But I pray,
It shall be
As it was
meant to be.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Do not go Gentle into that good Night

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Dylan Thomas,1914 - 1953
