Book
Attractive cover,
Intriguing summary.
Am hooked enough to buy.
Put it in my purse
Because am incomplete
Without a book nearby.
Get cozy at home,
A cup of tea,
A snack nearby,
Feet up,
Curled into a blanket.
Crack the book,
Smell the fresh pages,
Feel the weight,
Read About the Author.
Get hooked from the first line.
The story unfolds
Life gets put on hold
To read just one more chapter.
Until the end,
When it will be hard to leave
These new friends,
This world where I've lived,
And will mourn it's loss,
But be forever happy and better
For having known it.
I love this poem and I can identify with it fully. Especially the bit at the end about the sadness. It is like losing real friends.
