My Love Affair With Books

Books are a marvellous learning tool so much info that one can gain for your benefit and own satisfaction it's amazing what can be stored in the brain So many different types and kinds some paperback and hardback to choose new in this tech age you get ebooks on kindle its so simply easy to use There's something special in even a touch especially hardbacks seem lovely to hold so very much like a woman of beauty you don't want to let it go just wish to behold Many a book are slim and shapely reminds one of that girl you used to know having lost your effect on such a beauty memories of romantic nights sensually aglow My favs are God centred, bio and history books that take me on a love affair hold me in their grasp so very tight full of pages that pin me in my chair

I love books, although not with religious fervor. I'm not religious at all. I understand where you're coming from though. Nice thoughts!

I love this poem Gordon, and although in this day and age we only have to say, hey google find.... or tell me about..... and hey presto, there comes your answer, but books I love as well, I have kept all my study books from both my degrees but I think I told you that one of my majors in my 1st degree was The history of the Bible and for my honors my thesis was on the Spirituality of the New Testament. Loved your poem. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
