Turn the Page When the story you are reading Is the life that you are leading And you find you're constant pleading For a peace that is receding When the answers are misleading And it seems there's no succeeding Simply know you are misreading Turn the page When it seems there is no meaning And the tears are intervening If it's towards the dark you're leaning Turn the page When the winds of change are blowing And you're left alone in knowing That the love's no longer showing Turn the page When it's peace your heart is seeking Yet you constant hear the shrieking Of the inner voices speaking Turn the page When the final chapter's pending And there's no more use pretending That there's wisdom in defending What your heart is comprehending Take the road that is ascending Grant your spirit peaceful mending Dip the quill and write the ending Sign the page ~Vicky L. Raynes *Repost...because it's time to turn another page... "When the power of love overcomes the love |

Hey Vicky, that's a good idea. Maybe, I need to turn the page. Thank you for reposting this. I must have missed it the first time. |

Wow Vicky, that's the quickest five pages I've read in a long time... Well, whether it's a new chapter, or a whole new book entirely, I wish you all the best... The library life, is filled with new adventures, comedies, and mysteries... Good Gosh, I'm corny...lol This was wonderful Vicky! I'm glad I got to read it this time! |

Turn the page - begin a new chapter... remembering, of course, that each chapter builds upon the previous one - They're all a part of the whole story... Good poem, m'friend...  |

I remember this one--and still love it, the quick meter works wonderfully with this theme as it lends a manic feel to the read which enhances the overwhelming emotion for the need to change, with the almost mantra like answer of advice/admonition of "Turn the page" love this one, and love you, Lady V! |

Sue...yes...we all need to turn the pages of our lives at some point...lest we end up reading the same chapter over and over, and never really learn what our full story is to be...

Thank you...for adding friendship to this one... nn...thank you Michelle...thank you, my friend... I appreciate you reading, and glad you enjoyed... Grover...glad you enjoyed...thank you. Karen...yanno?...I always smile when I see your name on one of my posts...thank you...for you... Love you too, my sister...  2writeis2be...thank you...I'm glad you enjoyed... I am, however, a bit confused as to the perceived misspellings... Perhaps you could point them out to me? Thanks... Thanks again, everyone...

When the final chapter's pending And there's no more use pretending That there's wisdom in defending What your heart is comprehending Take the road that is ascending Grant your spirit peaceful mending Dip the quill and write the ending Sign the page Vicky, you know how I love your writing. This is no exception. It's just so good!! Love ya, my friend, Ethel |

I read this a couple days ago and had to go look it up again. It's such a grand poem, each word, each verse, each chapter. There's always another page, another book! Love it! |
