Not All Readers

The author’s imagination floats out of a book
Some readers are able to tether a bit of it
Maybe a word or a phrase
Others cannot adapt, not understanding

Flexible readers embellish the story
Adding flares and sparkles as they read
Intelligent readers visualize a bit more
The uninterested cannot concentrate at all.

I can be a good reader or a bad reader.
I am the best reader when the author is a master.
A word player who puts me into a new world.
Please intrigue, amuse, delight and excite me.
