MY LIFE IS AN OPEN BOOK

MY LIFE IS AN OPEN BOOK
COME OVER AND HAVE A LOOK
TURN PAGE AFTER PAGE
SEE PAGES OF HAPPINESS AND PAGES OF SORROW
HEAR SOUNDS OF LAUGHTER AND SOUNDS OF CRY
THERE ARE MANY CHAPTERS
FROM TIME OF INFANCY AND PLAYFUL CHILDHOOD
AND CHAPTERS OF BLOSSOMED MANHOOD
IT IS A JOURNEY AND TIME IS AT WHEEL
THERE ARE MORE CHAPTERS
FROM A YOUNG MAN LOOKING TO THE FUTURE
TO A MATURE MAN DRAWN IN THE WHIRL OF LIFE
TO GRAY HAIR OLDER MAN PRETENDING
HE HAS GAINED WISDOM
ALTHOUGH THERE ARE MANY CHAPTERS
THE LAST ONE HAS NOT BEEN WRITTEN
SOME ONE ELSE WILL WRITE IT WHEN THE
ULTIMATE JOURNEY HAS ENDED AND
BEFORE THE BOOK OF LIFE WOULD BE SWALLOW
IN THE REALM OF THE PAST
