Escape
A cup of coffee by my side as into the book I went.
I feel myself start to unwind, an afternoon well spent.
Off to another realm I go ,
as I turn the pages, precise and slow.
I sip the coffee and run away
to another place, another day.
To read a book is such a gift
whenever your soul may need a lift .
A good book takes me far away
and helps me escape the mundane day.
