The shrinking book of memories verse.

The clouds covered

the thoughts of today

while the opening 

of the almanac

containing the pages of life

released the butterflies of memories,

the book on turning

will become 

smaller tomorrow.

The book of life

unlike the length of string

does have an ending.

it feels like it gets smaller as we get closer to the end...and sometimes the climax of the story comes too early and we are just reading to the end with disinterest.
i like this poem...smart piece of writing.
