Chapter
a Poem by Raquel Swann
A life is like a book
it has a promising begining and,
a finite ending.
How it will end, for some,
has not yet been written.
Chapter by chapter
we forge ahead
watching the words
appear on the page
reading and learning.
The actions you take
in Chapter Six
could determine the outcome
within Chapter Eighty-six.
You only have one book, and
it cannot be edited.
Act now!
Before the next chapter is written.
For it could be your last.
