One Today is a poem by United States Poet Laureate Richard Blanco. It was recited at President Barack Obama's second inauguration.

Ken Tucker described the poem as "a fine example of public poetry, in keeping with Blanco’s other work: Loose, open lines of mostly conversational verse, a flexible iambic pentameter stanza form."[1]
