James Edward Lee Sr. Poet Haiku

Notes About The Poem

• 

Bookworm and the Clever Tree--

BOOKWORM AND THE CLEVER TREE--

magical mountain
a solid, clever tree reads
betrayed by the books

those uncovered pages 
read in the dark in the park
betrayed by the looks

classical words read
those squiggly page worm embraces
bookworm reads all day
