Today is the 26th month of my blog! My anniversary post is something different than the usual posts I write.
26 (# of months) + 7 (month) + 13 (day) = 46
If I go back to my 46th post and pick the words corresponding to 26, 7 & 13.
Here are those words –
When, His, Today
Now use these words as the first word of a sentence and write a poem.
When will the story be told
His story
Today is not that day
When will the truth be revealed
His truth
Today is not that day
When will the experiences be provided
His experiences
Today is not that day
When will the life be exposed
His life
Today is not that day
When will the last breath take place
His breath
Today is not that day
When that day arrives; it being sooner or later
His life will be revealed
Today is not that day
When they read his story; the one being told now
His true self may be shocking, or may be predictable
Today is not that day
When he is gone, never to return
His story will be left here
Today is not that day
Today he continues to write for as long as he can
His thoughts continue to be placed into words
When it is time to say goodbye, you will know
Today is the 26th month of my blog! My anniversary post is something different than the usual posts I write.
Good to know that today is not that day.
