Hello there.  I am glad you came today to look at my little poem

I hope you will come by tomorrow for a longer, more in-depth one

Late (an acrostic poem)

Leaving for the last minute is totally my style

And I usually can make it work

Then there is the time you know it is due tomorrow

Except it was due last week.  Oops!

Gamble (an acrostic poem)

Giving a toss of the dice, he closed his eyes

And projected the vision he needed as he heard them hit the table

Maybe if he truly believe, his luck would decide to work

But belief and seven bucks would buy him a venti latte at Starbucks

Looking at the pips he shook his head dejectedly. He’d have to go to work tomorrow

Except it wasn’t time to leave yet. He pulled out the last of his bankroll

Soup (an acrostic poem)

Slurping a liquid hug

On a cold gray dreary day

Uplifts her spirits, and she sighed contentedly

Perhaps she would be lucky and tomorrow be gloomy again

Tick (an acrostic poem)

The mark denoted a change in status.

It meant that one more thing was off the list.

Culling one more bit of weight from his soul.

Knowing that tomorrow the boss would just add five more.

Tidy (an acrostic poem)

The mess isn’t going to pick itself up, but

I really don’t care about it tonight

Deeming it a task for tomorrow

Yet I feel like tomorrow will be a callback to tonight

Tired (an acrostic poem)

Time to go to bed.

It’s been a long and trying day.

Ready for the sun to rise, marking a new beginning,

Except I still need to get these three things done.

Do I have to do them tonight or can it wait till tomorrow?

Bad Day (an acrostic poem)

Bringing all she had to the table

Anne felt like it just wasn’t enough

Doomed to fail, and fail horribly

Didn’t miss the mark by much

And everything went catastrophically wrong

Yet she realized tomorrow was another chance to do something great

Eve (an acrostic poem)

Every new beginning has that night before

Veiled in ambiguousness and anonymity

Experience that tonight, and may your tomorrow be ever changed

Salt (an acrostic poem)

Spice up your bland world

Allow each day to be tasty

Leave yourself sated with what you experienced

Then dream about the flavor of tomorrow
