“If you are ever going to love me,

Love me now, while I can know

The sweet and tender feelings

Which from true affection flow.

Love me now

While I am living.

Do not wait until I’m gone

And then have it chiseled in marble,

Sweet words on ice cold stone

If you have tender thoughts of me,

Please tell me now.

If you wait until I am sleeping

Never to awaken,

There will be death between us

And I won’t hear you then.

So, if you love me, even a little bit,

Let me know it while am living

So I can treasure it.”

A timely reminder for all of us ~ today and every day.

If you love someone, please tell them today. Tomorrow isn’t promised us..
