Take Time To Read

Human life is so hectic
Very little time to live
Much less try anything new
But there is something you can do
Open a book and start reading
It doesn’t matter what kind
You can read as you listen to music
As you sit in a forested park
Or spend your time in the bath
Where you do it doesn’t matter
Just enjoy the words in front of you
And let them take you wherever
Life will be waiting when you get back
I promise you that
