A True Love I cradled a book And opened its cover The words enfolded me Like the arms of a lover The story blanketed me And I felt infatuation With the turn of every page Turn to adoration … Alison [This message has been edited by aziza (05-28-2007 05:21 PM).] |

Thank you, Gentle Spirit -- perhaps you are simply a kindred spirit when it comes to books? A |

Lady You have been an inspiration to me since I came to PiP. Thank you for all the words in response to my writing. You never fail to make me smile. Alison ------------------- secondhandpoet - I have to agree with what I read today about you - you are far from "second hand" in your poetry. Thank you for taking the time to read and offer your thoughts. Alison |

Alison, I used to read books when I was a child...I had boxes and boxes of them...I could never get enough books I do miss that love in my life but it seems my eyes have gotten a bit old and cranky and after college, I just lost patience. I just might find a good book now and try it again, thanks to your poem here |

I am certainly a kindred spirit when it comes to books. One of the poems I never got around to finishing began: When daylight falls and nighttime calls The weary day to end I settle in my study and Surround myself with friends. Books are my greatest friends and authors my heroes. I see you may feel the same way.. |
