not today

flowers will blossom on endless fields
children will laugh with innocence in their eyes
the sun will shine over idyllic landscapes
lovers will lay in a neverending embrace
rain will soak barren dry lands
old men will share wisdom on a park bench
winds will blow away the autumn leaves
young girls will dream of future boyfriends
snow will freeze the beauty of a winter night
crowds will gather for a noble cause
music will echo through a packed concert hall
pets will patiently await their owner's arrival
a million stars will shine in a warm summer evening
the world will keep on turning
but just not today...
