Some people don't like to read books,
And that is their right.
But every day a person lives--
Is a page in the book of their life.
The first chapter starts at
Their life's beginning--
And as they start to grow, when
Their personality starts forming.
The other pages continue along,
Through the good and bad times.
These are the pages that show their
Character--the mountains they must climb.
The happy times with family-
Holidays and finding love when
Least expected--or when someone else's
Book comes sadly to an end.
Sometimes the book of your life
Is long, or sometimes all too brief.
It could be an accident or an illness,
That sneaks in like a thief.
Your life's book has an ending--
But you have to live each page,
And you can't go to the end and peek.
How interesting the story, only time will gauge.
