feels like yesterday."
..."Tomorrow always<br />feels like yesterday."<br /><br />There's something so melancholy in these words, like that movie "Groundhog Day." Reliving the "same day" over and over again. Sometimes it takes a very long time to get out of that kind of rut, and it happens so slowly that you don't realize it until you notice the echoes are gone and the day feels clear once more. Beautifully captured, Steve.Ginny Brannanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15298060016652737538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8912094816780327975.post-91568668799367586392014-02-27T20:44:28.279-05:002014-02-27T20:44:28.279-05:00Beautiful poem, Steve.
