The gift of today

More precious than the rest.
I didn't need a reason, didn't need a grand design,
Just the fact that I could feel the sun upon these eyes of mine.
The coffee in my favorite cup, the warmth between my hands,
The rhythm of the ordinary, the beauty of the plan.
This is the gift of today,
A brand-new chance to find my way, to laugh, to love,
To simply be.
To taste the air, to feel the sea,
