The pages of life scream for stories to tell
Whenever it's told, will never grow old
Each experience unique, lived out so well
Readers will know, with pages in hands, they gently hold
What will the world see as they eagerly read?
The saga of your life, not known by a few
Will anything there, help meet their need?
Now told to a world's audience, all pleasantly true
Your story may not achieve worldly fame
Many a reader may now know your name
Still go ahead and tell it, just the same
In stories there written, and how they became
Many around you may find peace of mind
A life well lived, amidst days and nights
Stories you tell, may be one of a kind
Hidden in darkness, even paraded in lights
The riches of the world, fall far short of these
Hidden gems will put, questioning minds at ease
Your weaknesses, strengths, failings, and successes
In choices you made, in all too familiar places
What you do, though you may never knew
The impact of your life, on just not a few
Will you be remembered for a thing or two?
The writer you never knew, residing in you.

A salty mist is in the air and the verdant beauty of nature abounds everywhere. Learn more.
