Pages Of Life Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Life bound in volumes, standing upon wooden shelves,
awaiting the learned, hoping soon they will visit.

Beautiful covers hiding many facets of life between
them, willing to share with anyone who wants to open
them.

Carefully, gently, stories, and words unfold from one
generation to another, relating the history and lives
from ages past.

Numbered pages, one at a time, turn with a quiet
rustle in splendid respite.

Prayerfully suspended in another time, another place,
while remaining in the same chair, traveling the
world within a mind.

Vast knowledge placed right before your eyes, made
just for your field of sight.

Forever to be remembered and passed on to little
children.
