Collector
Fancy finds me so many flings:
Things of beauty that sure time brings.
Curious fancy seeks fond allure:
This and that see precious and pure.
Greet new keepsake in subtle stuff:
Mellow wit takes beyond enough.
Zesty notions of weird flavours:
Fine devotion in bright colours.
Touch of finesse in hues and tints:
I am witness to silent hints.
So much to add to keeper's code:
Trinkets make glad in buying mode.
Miniature books in special norms:
Library looks a dazzling form.
I keep in mind my sacred finds:
Trust fond align for keepsake kind.
This vast hobby in lovely books:
Tomes now lobby for reading looks.
I sit here now with fond content:
Read truth's endow in clear intent.
A book in hand is my best friend:
Thought motion sends an affluent trend.
I collect things that talk to me:
Beauty now sings to set me free.
So many things to dazzle me:
Heart pulls the strings to let me be.
