The Book of Life
  Destiny sits with her hands cradling her heart
  She gingerly opens the large book before her
  Starting where she last had been
  A musical composition in which raindrops are the composers
  Fire and Ice are its backdrop
  As the world becomes white with snow
  The autumn air leaves the woods with the last tastes of pumpkin
  Leaving with only a parting dance
  Leaves swirling in the breeze
  As they jump off the trees
  The birds leave in a flash of feathers
  They start their travel
  With a sad song they sing their goodbyes
  I hear their mourning calls and head home
  There is no victory in their song
  And Destiny sits with her hands cradling her heart
  As she turns the last pages of the book of life
