Notes About The Poem

My favorite places are libraries, farmers markets, and stores that sell sheet music and musical instruments/accessories.

Souls of Our Culture

In my mind, there is nothing more scary
Than a city without a library.
Libraries are the souls of our culture.
There's no better place for folks to tarry.

Those that wander along the shelves and nooks
Are likely to be enlightened by books,
And gain knowledge and skills to earn success
Libraries don't attract gangs, crooks, or snooks.

Childen will always find some place to play.
Lovers will find some place to sneak away.
People that want to usually find jobs.
Libraries keep minds from going astray!
