Reading

I play with sunbeams and my friend until these moments come to end. Again my open book will send me to the places of world's end. When day is done and last page read, I go to pillow and to bed. Dreams to daylight as night is shed and I to bright, new places led. When night has come, I'm off the hook and I'll return to read my book. Looking forward to cozy nook, serious words, some gobbledygook.
