Tale

Parchment
fresh and new. Blank.
Slowly fills with fuzzy shapes and wobbles.
Sounds of muffled universe.

Bright still
and cluttered with learnings.
Doodles of adventures and mistakes.

Margins grow then narrow.
All the same, writing flows.

Perhaps new colors are tried. Stamps?
Calligraphied prose or meaningful spaces?

Mistakes still happen, learnings too.
Slowly sharp images slightly dim.

Parchment torn and later mended. Beveled with wisdom
earned through time.
Gently it wrinkles and yellows with age.
Your multifaceted story upon its' page.
