Any Given Day - PAD Day 18

Any Given Day

Today,

for instance,

might be someone’s first –

a birth, celebration and struggle,

first steps, first word, first grade

the start of something beautiful –

a graduation, engagement,

somebody’s wedding (something

old, new, borrowed, blue) or

mayhap just another typical,

routine, garden variety,

run-of-the-mill,

prosaic day.

Then again,

just perhaps,

it might be

your

last.
