Some Things Cannot Be Read

sleeping pile of skulls
rising from books long dead
tempting virgin

fluffy blanket smiles
cocooning her with protection
stardust dream angel arrives

telepathy subtle
young girl is learning
otherworld music 

mystical magical moment
must be experienced
cannot be read in a book.

There's an old saying: that a bookworm (and most 'well read' academics), are a donkey with a pile of books on its back. Your excellent poem underlines this Caren!
