Life Compared to a Book

Our life is like a book
We read one word, one page
then chapters
We live one hour, one day
then years
We shouldn't rush one
before the other
We have to go through happy
times and tears
We turn the pages
as we go along
Each one is different,
maybe better, maybe worse
Same as life, tomorrow might
be a better day
Or maybe one
we can't believe
We'll be glad
when it goes away
We take it as it comes
then wait for the next
Don't look back
but look forward
We'll get through
without harm
Whatever the future
may bring
We'll face it without alarm
Life is like a book
always changing
We start when it begins
go all the way through
Then we can know
the whole story even how it ends
