Footprints of Time
#WritcoPoemChallenge

My life is an open book,
That led me through every nook,
And every corner of discovery,
Of life's long journey.

Through pages, I've traveled far and wide,
With words as my compass, a faithful guide,
Each chapter woven with joy and strife,
An epic tale of my vibrant life.

In the prologue, innocence bloomed,
A fledgling heart, yet unconsumed,
With dreams unfurled, like birds in flight,
I embarked upon the canvas of light.

Chapter one unveiled youth's sweet zest,
Where friendships forged, the very best,
The world a playground, dreams ablaze,
As endless summers filled my days.

Chapter two whispered love's tender verse,
Where passion danced, a secret curse,
Heartstrings entwined in a lover's embrace,
A tapestry woven with tender grace.

Chapter three embraced the storm's embrace,
Adversity's tempest, trials to face,
But resilience grew, a flame unyielding,
In hardships faced, my spirit revealing.

Chapter four unfolded wisdom's reign,
Where lessons learned transcended pain,
The brushstrokes of experience, now refined,
A masterpiece crafted through the sands of time.

Chapter five, a tale of family and kin,
Bonds unbreakable, eternally akin,
Through laughter and tears, we found our way,
A tapestry of love that will forever stay.

Chapter six bore the weight of dreams,
Ambitions vast, like soaring streams,
The pursuit of purpose, an unquenchable fire,
Guiding me higher, inching me nigher.

Now, in the twilight of this memoir,
I pen the epilogue, my heart laid bare,
Grateful for every line, every rhyme,
Inscribed upon the tapestry of time.

For my life is an open book,
That led me through every nook,
And every corner of discovery,
Of life's long journey.
