If Your Life Is a Storybook What Will You Name It

If your life is a story what will be your titled page? Will it be just a kindle format or a hardback I wonder what the pages would spell like May be of mystery, misery, love, hate, shelter or war Will there be children crying on the front headlines; Riots .Or will there be flowers planted on the front pages to tell how beautiful your emotion is, may be berries .will it be a blue berry or red berry .Or a rose flower. Will the pages speak for themselves. If your life was a book what will you name it? Will it be a novel or a novela, a play or poem An essay or a memoir written Will it be in rhymes, a sonnet, an epic or just free verses I wonder if it will be a photocopy of another man's pages Will the chapters spell love or hatred , well spent or regret Who will be in your acknowledgement?, and dedicated to who? Will you be the hero or villain, the Jack or Rose , the Romeo or Juliet Achilles, Hector, Paris, or Helen of Troy If your life was a book what will you name it What would the world read of it?

Superb stuff, Gideon! It's always a pleasure to read your poetry. Incidentally, you have a typo in your poem. I think you meant "villain"(2nd line of the last stanza)?
