Thread: Wonderful tomorrow song

  1. #1

    Wonderful tomorrow song

    It can surface suddenly
    like something bloated,
    greenish rotten
    a memory
    can surface
    perhaps while on the train
    on a wednesday
    or in bed a saturday night
    perhaps something about
    hiding in the wardrobe
    singing the
    "wonderful tomorrow song"
    that I made up
    silently in my head
    while he was searching
    all around the house
    knocking over furniture
    I thought the tune was pretty
    and I made it all myself
    "Wonderful tomorrow
    tomorrow it will all be over
    wonderful tomorrow"
    and it had magic in it

    now I am grown
    and of a rational mind
    and so I count from one to
    one hundred
    because somewhere between
    one
    and one hundred
    the picture will
    sink and be gone
    somewhere

    wonderful

    between one and

    tomorrow

    one hundred

    tomorrow

    it will be gone

    it will all be over

    Very interesting, Isagel. I see the poem alludes to something, which one probably should not ask of, but personalized (almost signatured) coping mechanisms mostly outline the poem.
    Of course, memories will oddly (and randomly) jump out of seemingly nowhere, whether they seem pleasant or otherwise. Out of all times and places, however, "tomorrow" seems the day when troubles will disappear, and, as the famous quote says, "tomorrow never dies."
    Beautifully written, Isagel; I always look forward to your poetry.
