Poem
I have read that book cover to cover many a time It's held me when I was down gave me smiles all night long It has given me a sense of self worth and a feeling I belong Many a night I have sat in front of a roaring fire with a glass of wine or two and have fallen deeply in love I have floated on air soared through the sky slid down moonbeams got caught in candy floss clouds and wished upon fallen stars Oh that book I have read that book it has brought me many nights to tears the death, the despair, the pain Oh how I would like to reach out and save her, comfort her, just to be there We have had our sorrows but also our laughs the cute stories of kids flying kites the wise men chasing their wives the nonsense alley gang giving us a smile when we were going insane Oh how I have loved your stories Soda Pop, Zach Waverly and Sam Dumpty just to mention a few Your epics and your Poe's and your paranormal too That book that fantastic book the one that I love with all your well wishes your tributes, and romantic kisses You I so adore But tonight I am saddened for when I turn to my book some pages are empty some have become torn some no longer are singing where they once had been born I sit here at my desk and I read til I'm blue all my dear departed poets I'm so missing you
