A Poem

In a land not far, where brookies play,
Under the sun’s warm, embracing ray.
There lived a cookie, crisp and round,
Dreaming of adventures to be found.

This cookie, though sweet, had a daring heart,
Yearning for journeys, eager to start.
He pondered on lessons life had in store,
Beyond the comfort of the kitchen door.

One day, he ventured, with courage anew,
To where the brook babbled and the winds blew.
He met a booky, wise and profound,
Whose tales of the world were both vast and sound.

“Looky here,” said the booky with a smile,
“Life’s not just about running the mile.
It’s the nooks and crannies you dare to explore,
Finding joy in the journey, not just the score.”

The cookie listened, his crumbs shook in thrill,
To live fully was a choice, an act of will.
Not spooky shadows, nor fears of the night,
Could stop his spirit or dim his light.

Then came a day, under skies so gray,
A lesson was learned in a most unexpected way.
He played hooky from worries, from doubts and from fear,
Embraced the present, with those he held dear.

For life, he learned, is like a flowing brook,
Unpredictable, wild, an open book.
And like a cookie, sweet are the days,
When savored fully, in so many ways.

So, here’s a toast, to lessons learned by the brook,
To the bookies, the cookies, and chances we took.
For in this whimsical, winding life’s nook,
The greatest lesson is the joy we overlook.
