Books Are

Books are Good company A rainy day's refuge Filled with the brave bold and craven Landscapes and seascapes imbued with drama A blithe jaunt with a thousand laughs A blissful excursion My best of friends Books are 7/31/22

A good book to read is like entering a world away from your reality and treasuring it, as I do with your poetry Robert!

They are all that you said Robert. I feel the same way of my books. They are treasured. Nicely written conveying a message I think most readers can relate too. I always enjoy reading your Poetry Robert you are in that special class of Poets. Your creativity and sense of humor is exceptional and fun to experience. You should write a book on your work. I think it would be a great success... God bless you and enjoy the weekend...

A great example of the form Robert. I feel the same way about my books. They are the first things I would save in a flood or fire, photographs too. Blessings xxoo
