I had such a delightful day
With family, old and new friends
Sweet food and good thoughts flowed my way
Who'd want such a sweet day to end
But when with shock I saw the clock
Careless joy was turned to sorrow
What I thought was early today
Already early tomorrow
I must protect body and head
Be good always do the right thing
Tiptoe to welcome soft-hard bed
Remove glittery rhinestone rings
I let myself sink in a dream
Where soothing nonsense words are heard
Where mud seem to be bright and clean
Magic glamour of the absurd
All jumbled up was my whole week
I'd fallen in a coffee cup
Maybe my toe caught in the sheet
Over sugar rocks, I climbed up
In dreams I'm young and I am bold
Although my right leg's feeling cold
And I forget I'm getting old
Tomorrow will be good I'm told
I happily made my escape
Out of my bed, grab, I'm falling
The light told me it was daybreak
Hot breakfast croissant was calling
Well, life moves on, what can I say
Tomorrow now is yesterday
'though its tomorrow's now today
Hurray, future's still far away.
-ends-
The title is ambiguous. It could mean the tomorrow of today, or the tomorrow is today.
I need to protect my body and head - more than my eight syllable pattern, I must protect body and head - that's eight syllables.
