Open Book

We start life as an open book
writing our story page by page
trying to find the perfect hook
meeting characters upon life’s stage

seasons and scenery changes
plots twist intensifying chapters
time, setting and theme rearrange
fragile relationships may shatter

attentive readers need a closer look
read between the finely written lines
not all writers are an open book
perhaps a story-line is sublime 

inked pages all is not as it seems
penned are my daily wanderings
in my book brimming with dreams
hidden are my deepest ponderings
