The book of my life

My life is an open book,

That led me to every nook,

And every corner of discovery,

Of life's long journey.

It led me through many difficult phases,

And lured me for dreams which everyone chases,

The book didn't seem to have an end,

I turned the pages and it continued to extend.

The lessons the book of my life had,

Taught me to move on and never be sad,

It made me realize my true potential,

And to focus on things which were essential.

Life helped me to bear it's ups and downs,

It taught me to recover even if I get trounced, 

I struggled vigorously and hard,

To get my life's reward. 

At last when I would reach it's end,

Where it would not further extend,

I would pat myself and say,

What a life I had on my whole way!
