The Book

Unlike a thousand million stars
Enclosed in the universe
So are words 
Enclosed in a book
Each page brings a new story 
But still some or the other 
Remains untraveled  and unrevealed 

Thousands of lives are led 
By a single person alone 
As each book gives 
Some strength to weaker bones 
It is a home for the people 
Who are all alone 
And for dreamers 
It is a lighted dome
Which brings new ideas 
And an example for the one
Who really want to try 
And get their work done

Changing perspective of the reader
Changing the perspective of an artificial  world 
Winnowing the dust 
From our mind and heart
Keeps people connected 
Even when they are apart

Words are the weapon 
Words are the cure
But when they get a companion like a book
They become truly pure 

A book is an inspiration
For the people who are depressed 
And a good friend to share all plans 
They make us feel good
As if we are in open
Where no limits are there for imagination

Regardless of wealth 
Regardless of past 
It will always be there 
When a person needs it 
No matter whether it is day or night 
For in day it is a shadow 
And at night 
A bright light………….
