Pressed between
Memories of past
Future unknown
Only this moment
Time moves on
Moments to memories
Future to moments
Present this second
Day to night
Night to day
Morning to noon
Noon to evening
Yesterday was today
Tomorrow is now today
Next week to last week
Year after year
Holding tight
To this moment
Sun sets on today
Memories remain

I’ve been a writer all my life. Growing up on a farm, I dreamed up all kinds of stories as I spent hours in the fields and the barn. When I graduated from high school, I studied journalism in college and began my career as a writer in advertising. Eventually I made my way into corporate communications before retiring a few years ago. Now I am writing for myself—dabbling in blogging and working on self-publishing that novel that’s been in my head for quite a few years. Through it all, I have thoroughly enjoyed the creative process and using words to create stories.
