Today and Tomorrow


Today and Tomorrow 
Not the same now 
Its like two sides of a coin 
Heaven and Hell i suppose

Today's ride home
Tomorrow's pollution storm
Yet no one seems to bother
unless its the order

Cut trees to build a house today 
Plant trees to breathe tomorrow
The first happens and hope the second too
Time is short and in the end nothing to do
 
Nature is weak and fragile
But Children are strong and agile
The leaders of tomorrow grow
but all grown up when theres no place to go  

But when will it happen ?
Yesterday's gone , Tomorrow's unborn
This leaves us one day - Today 
In tomorrow's children we trust
