READ A BOOK


 

 

In a quiet spot.

On a soft chair.

In the sun’s spotlight.

I will read a book.

Eyes wide open.

Mind ready to explore.

Sunlight streaming.

I will read a book.

Hands trembling.

Tears falling.

Sun warming my body.

I will read a book.

I've never been able to physically do what the poem clearly shows. I'm glad that you can.

Unlike the others who would seem to want to roll out dusty old scrolls with the words fading off the page, I prefer to get my stories any way I can. Totally enjoying watching reality shows of people doing interesting things and dramas of all sorts.

Occasionally I will crane my neck to the point of strain, while desperately holding down the pages of a hardback or paperback on my desk, reading in my slow, engineering way, a book for an hour or two. My hands might spasm from strain but never tremble with emotion. But, while reading or watching good stuff, I occasionally tear up. Doesn't everybody?

A fine tribute to books and reading, Susanne. I, for one, much prefer a hardcopy book in my hand than reading a tablet. A lot of people have gone that route, not I. Love and best wishes to you,

Regis.

I will never give up reading books, no matter the direction technology leads us, there is something quite special in reading the written and printed word...-e-

I truly hope computers never replace books. There's just something about holding a book and reading. It's an experience that can't be equaled or duplicated by reading from a monitor screen.

What a lovely idea for a lovely poem, the place where one can read it special indeed. Love this one.

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
