Books

This is a poem about books Not just books, But what happens between us and books Our relationship with books To some- They’re only stacks and stacks of a series of words To some- They are their teachers when no teachers are around To some- They are like the family they never had To some- They are the keys to adventures waiting to be found. Books, books and books! I see storybooks, textbooks, revision books, comic books, Novels and anthologies Vicissitude in ideologies! Reading is an action of exploring- The mysterious conflict of a detective in an action novel Reading could also be Testing your know-how on hard, heinous, words that make you grovel! In books- Of profound love and allegory I found a letter by the beach Read about the grief and sorrow of a widowed man I trailed a rabbit down a hole and got lost in a dream Fought and slew a dragon, I’m the hero of Wonderland! Sure, of course! You might get tired of it After all, it’s human nature To take action, put an end to it. 28/03/2020

So my English teacher challenged me to write a poem dedicated to books. He messed with the wrong person! :)
