Fun: An Authors Thoughts

Have you ever wondered about a book, 
About the words on the page,
About how the words join to make a story, 
A story that’s completely engaged,

And which of these words already existed, 
Or which words came straight from the pen,
And which words and phrases, chapters and verse, 
Had to be written again,

And where did the author begin this story, 
Did they start at the start or the end,
And where did the author write all this stuff, 
Where was the story all penned,

I wonder if this story was meant to be big, 
Or was it meant to be small,
Or if the author had other ideas, 
Didn’t mean to write a story at all.
