Array ( [sid] => 68338 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Lifes Book [time] => 2004-10-21 11:07:18 [hometext] => [bodytext] => As time goes by I often find
My thoughts become more clear
I sit and think about the things
I did through out the years

When looking back I wonder
If there were anything I would change
It’s like looking through a book
And my life is on every page

I see a chapter on places
That I have been able to know
A blank page on the right
For places still to go

I see a chapter called mistakes
It pretty plain to see
All the mistakes were ones
That was mistakes all made by me

The next chapter I come upon
Is the one called lessons learned
It’s in this one I found out
Respect is something earned

The chapter titled Love
Is filled with joy and pain
Its something I have learned to give
In order to enjoy the gain

I notice as I try to leaf
Through the pages of my book
The chapters that are missing
Are the roads I never took

I try to race to the ending
To see how my life turns out
To be continued..... Is what it said
A masterpiece I have no doubt. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 181 [topic] => 43 [informant] => sweetansexy [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )
