Like a good book, take it page by page just as you must take life day by day.


Poem Artwork

Life is like a book
Turn the page and find
Take another look
With each day
And every page
You can change your mind

Wond'ring what comes next
Don't dare read the end
Read on through the text
Take chapters
One at a time
Just as life my friend

What the writer wants
You to see he will
With his fine galants
The story
Is his glory
Life's his story mill

If life novel be
Would you look ahead
Just to sneak and see
Or would you
Patiently await
Read it all instead

Reviewed on December 2, 2012
Sometimes I read half of the last chapter
notorious for that lol... just to get a
glimpse, but sometimes there is a surprise
ending...

Each day of our life is a page in the book
of life, one we will be able to review with
smiles and sometimes bittersweet....

Lovely Jane

Love and Light
Lily

That's what bookmarks are for. I agree it is a travesty to read the ending and then say you've read the book. But in the case of some of my books, you probably could skip chapters. ;-)

In life, as your allegory suggests it is not good to jump to the conclusion too soon. It is far better to take each day at a time and live it well, with a keen eye on the future to steer you.

a wonderful view of the comparison between the two and yes one page at a time

Life is indeed a beautiful book and when we try to look at the next page or the next chapter, we will find out that these pages are still empty, waiting to be filled by what we do each and every day, the path that we go and the choices that we make.
So we have to wait patiently and read it all instead, word by word, line by line, page by page and chapter by chapter.

A beautiful poem Jane

If we all lived life according to your instructions, Jane, we wouldn't have nearly the amount of trouble and strife in our daily lives.
