One soul in...

:
The Cosmic Library
by fairydancer Soul Writer writing prompt entry
the first chapter
of the book that is me
was lovingly inscribed by God
bound with "leather" skin
and sent into the world
to fill
my parents took charge of the quill
for a while
as I grew
sometimes too much
sometimes not enough
until the day my poem
began to write itself
pictures were added
to support the text
~ memories ~
with some
their ink leaked through
ruining several pages
while others
brightened and rejuvenated
all they touched
eventually
new quills were placed into my hands
now, my children's, I guide
sometimes too much
sometimes not enough
whilst watching their poems grow
one day
they may
guide my quill
for awhile
until God once again
takes over
but I wonder...
...will my book be a romance?
novel
drama
suspense
or thriller?
more likely a mixture of many
...and what will the Cosmic Library be like?
