Ode to the blank page
Ode to Ordinary Challenge entry
A blank page
May look empty
Like nothing at all
But
To someone who knows
To someone who understands
It is full
Full of potential
Full of stories
Waiting to be told
Full of adventures
Waiting to be started
Full of characters
Waiting to come to life
With lives
Waiting to be started
Full of truths
Waiting to come to light
With obstacles
Waiting to be overcome
Full of mysteries
Waiting to be uncovered
Good times, bad times
Relationships, births, deaths
Laughter, sadness, anger, and grief
Horrors, battles, conquests
Twists, turns, and lessons to be learned
Love, hate, loyalty and betrayal
Just like life
In the beginning
All we are
is a blank page
