What A Wonder Is A Book!


Poem Artwork

 

  

   

When You Read

 

 

when you're bored with nothing to do   

 

here's a bit of good advice for you   

 

go to the bookshelf, pull out a book   

 

see how little effort that took?

 

 

 

   open that book and start to read   

 

on it's pages find what you may need   

 

to run away and have a good time   

 

find it in stories or a book of rhyme

 

   

 

travel easily to China or Japan   

 

or maybe some unknown fantasy land   

 

become a brave king or a wise wizard     

 

find out how to cook chicken gizzards

 

   

 

play with cute puppies and kitty cats   

 

run with the horses, fly with bats   

 

curl up with red foxes in the wood    

 

do all the things you wish you could 

 

 

 
stay there all day, perhaps all night

if you have a little reading light

fight the battles, claim the prize    

soon you will be closing your eyes

 

  

When you read your brain will grow   

 

many things you'll discover and know    

 

 open that book and remember please

  

life is exciting when you read

This is beautiful and all the children should get to read it. Our 5 children are all grown up in their 40s and 50s but they grew up reading books, we always encouraged it from when they were tots. Thank you for sharing and I will read this to my youngest grandchildren.
I am back on here writing poetry after being away for a few years.

Today, lots of people are reading but it's mostly online and mostly emails and comments on social media. I agree with you there's more to see and do in a book on any subject!

A wise and much-needed nudge for most people who have their text life immersed in abbreviated SM talk. My job for the past 18 years has had me proofing and editing 2 audio books a week, so my smiles for your urging readers to read is with pleasure and encouragement for those who are book pleasure starved. Thank you for posting. Yes... still have the smile on my face.

A change for you but it welcome invite for those who haven't read for a while to find out what it's like. I am one of those. Find it impossible to curl up with a good book in my hands. I must have the book on a flat surface in good light where I can read it for maybe, 20 pages before my neck or my eyes give out.

While I was having my wisdom tooth pulled this morning, a tall, good looking, black, dental technician couldn't wait to talk to me. When I was in for a consultation a couple of weeks ago, I gave her, the dentist and other members of the staff some of my books.

I was being sedated when she gave me the heart sign with her hands and said, "I love your writing. I read a few words and I started to laugh. And then I found out that it was a book of many different short stories, something I like, too.

She wanted me to tell her what book I would recommend next of mine. It's nice to see a young, rap savvy young lady on her mobile phone, learn to enjoy reading again.

They molested me while I was under against my wishes to go under, and my wisdom tooth was gone when I woke up along with the feeling on the left side of my jaw, tongue and lips.
