Books

When you open a book, a new life begins.
You follow the character through its journey,
All the way to the end.
When the book ends, the character dies,
Unless there is a sequel.
But like everything, the character will die.
Books have an ending and so does life.
There is no sequel to life and the only
Way your life can carry on after you're gone,
Is through your children.
Books are like life and they both
End.


My poem compares books to life. Life has journeys and books are filled with adventures that the characters go on. Books end and so does life. There are sequels to books, but no matter how many of the books in a series there are, they will eventual end. That can be compared to life because all living things die. I love to read and that helped inspire me to write this poem. I'm usually always sad when I come to the end of a book because the adventure is over.
