Poem Artwork

Books I have are few,
Books are also not new,
But read them all I have,
Not just part of them or halve…

Subjects range,
From eastern religions,
To mystery & classics,
I’ve enjoyed each and every one,
Even the most of them, strange…

My bookshelf came from my upstairs neighbor,
A donation to my meager furnishings,
I wish I had more,
But with what little money I have, you know that score…

Book stores selling old books, yard sales, and libraries
sell books.

yard sales, and jumble shops are good spots to shop for books, and the nice things about books,.. the good ones we can read again and again.

Mystery of Madera Canyon
Cemetery Island
Curious Creatures-Wondrous Waifs
Through Katrina's Eyes
Gold River Canyon

Thanks, Bro.

Strange is relative and since your relatives are all strange I guess things are actually in balance....a karma kind of thing I suppose. Cuz p

I'm lucky, Ed, I get my books from the library for $.25 each. I like it that way, because I read authors I usually wouldn't read. The $.25 means I buy the book, hardcover and all. Not bad, eh?

It's nice that you have some good neighbours. Glad you're reading the books as well.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
