Reading

For as long as I remember I've always loved to read It didn't really matter what It all fulfilled a need A good love story warmed my heart I traveled through time with history The comic pages made me laugh And I always loved a good mystery Through the pages of books I have traveled Across oceans and deserts I've roamed I've not spent a dime on my journeys And I just close the book to come home I get to meet famous people And though I've never set foot in a college Every book that I read will help me succeed To expand in wisdom and knowledge I must say though I do have a favorite Tis the greatest book I believe ever written For treasures untold as the stories unfold It speaks volumes to those who will listen Its a little of everything rolled into one Humor, mystery, history and love All written by one single author Our glorious Creator above Someday I might too be an author I'll never know lest I try But regardless of whether I'm published I'll still love to read till i die
