My Beautiful World of Books

The beautiful world of books
Has long been my passion 
Reading a super fiction
Hiding in corners and nooks

Romance an all time favourite
Soft tears it always brings
My heart sometimes sings
As I long to savour it

Classic tragedy comes next
With Othello, Macbeth and Hamlet
Into every castle and chalet
Though the dialect is complex

Flying with fairies and goblins
Forgetting all but neverland
Merryweather and her magic wand
And the caravan of the Bedouins

The sacred passion of reading
Opens a whole new world
Where new ideas gets unfurled
And life takes a whole new meaning
