The final chapter, a few more pages

Can’t wait to see how it ends.

The drama’s been building a lifetime

Through plots both thick and thin. 

Protagonists and antagonists

each with his own endorsements,

Scenery changes, the plot rearranges,

An epoch of grand proportions.

Some stories end with drama,

Some end with a twist of fate;

Some go soft and gentle,

Some you grow to hate.

I tell my students never to write

"The end" at the end of their plots.

As it’s always pretty obvious…..

It’s whenever the writing stops.

But I think it’s better now, to write

"The End" with such a flair

That no one, ever, will forget

That it was you, who put it there.


THE END
