Tower Falls

A Kenning
Her books She loved; She had A ton. Her book Stack had, Hundred And one. In fact, Tower She’d built, With books. But she’d Ignored One big, Mail rule. Tower Of books; Balance, It needs. One day, She sat On floor, To write; She bumped Tower; With books, Her head; Showered; Headache Ensued; Entrapped!

I have to admit that it took me many moves to finally stop lugging eighty nine crates of heavy books; now with Kindle and I-pads, we do not need physical books except when a child is in our lap. Nicely built story my friend.

True story and after that experience, I did buy a Kindle.

Bibliophiles are unique! Before she could read, my granddaughter had a library of books no one was permitted to touch but her and - amazing to me - she knew EXACTLY where every book was on the shelf for every story. Aloha! Rico
