Books Ooze Their Goodness

Books ooze their goodness Delighting me the way no TV show could Enticing me, enrapturing me, loving me Changing me into a pirate or a murder victim Mysteries and biographies are my favorite, Scientology intrigues me and fascinates me. I do not mean THE scientology. I mean geology, zoology, biology, and astrology. I adore poems, short stories, plays, and songs. Written word power takes up much of my day. I fall asleep in my chair, lulled into dreamland In the middle of books which drop on the floor. Deeply aware that words will live on Long after we are forgotten, I sit by the window Expecting something fabulous to pique my interest. I have never been disappointed.
