Reading/Knowledge Is Power

Page after page My nose in a book I read intently As the words Form pictures In my mind What power. With one look. Imagination runs wild, There is nothing Like the thrill, The ride, thoughts race Like a roller coaster Going through its paces Giving you chills. It’s a rainbow Of translations, If you will. Get on it, And feel the inclination To soar Until You’ve had enough. But is it ever? Never You see, Once you start It’s too tough To get off That ride That makes You smart To begin with. You are filled With exhilaration And with pride. Reading takes you to the top, To the power of knowledge! Knowledge is power, A roller coaster That never stops.
