Tales of Wonder

Dazzled by the imagination of fantasists we leave our homes temporarily Enter into fantastic worlds filled with wonder and delight J.R. R. Tolkien brought us to the perilous realm of Faerie Which holds danger for mortals Yet we wouldn't exchange the lands he showed us for a bucketful ot gold There is a time for fantasy Dreams become realities and we are encircled by the work of a modern master who has lifted us from the mundane to the extraordinary

This is nice, Matthew. You have written about what every reader goes through when immersed in the story of a good book. Perfect last two lines. Kind regards. Kim

Life would become boring if we didn't disappear into a fantasy world once in awhile... Thankfully , we have amazing authors like Tolkien who can help us do that... I really enjoyed your wonderful poem, Matthew. Very nicely penned!
