Books

Characters formed in the,
Imaginery visions of the author.
The reader sees the character,
In only what their mind can see.
Reading into the story it,
Gripping your very soul.
Words form into feelings and,
Emotions thrusting you into the,
Story where your mind,
Takes you everyday.
At night they take you in their arms,
Gripping your very soul until your,
Heart swells with love.
The alarm rings.
You awake 
Cussing the author,
But smiling knowing you have,
Hope in the future.
Your heart lives.

Hello Shirley, There is nothing like a good book to read. I read Chicken Soup For The Soul. The Miracle of Love is what I am reading now. They also have Cats stores and many more subjects to read. I read other books to. Hugs. Darlene

Hello Shirley, reading a book can make you feel like you are really there. ByI p leaving the image in our minds. I often wonder what the charters are like. I try to picture how they look. Hugs.

I have favorite subjects also. It's really nice imagining what the characters look like and the different homes and areas they dream of. Yes books are indeed wonderful. Thanks for your comments I really appreciate it.
