I caught this poem on a quick visit: My mother was an avid reader from early on in life, me too. Our home was a library. Books in every room. A bagillian is a lot of books! Fun read. M.True

Delightful and meaningful too, I believe. I am once in a while inspired to write "children's stuff." It sure seems to inspire you and your readers benefit. Thank you for sharing. Love and best wishes,

Regis

How funny is this yet so clever is each line. I could just see books hanging from the ceiling and nailed to the door.. Yes Pat, you and I are akin in spirits of the adventuresome kind.. It is good to laugh.. Great reading...

i'm not sure how it got turned around in the reading but it's eliza's words 'i'll simply write my own'

in actuality it will more than likely be jack ...the silent talent from his mom

"...i haven't changed the scene or wording much... only set them to rhyme...from 5 yr old eliza blue to her older brother jack..." And may I say you've done an excellent job in the process.

Love the message.

Thanks Dick

Gotta love it! And I do. I love this, and I could never in a million years write something so simple, yet so very profound. Putting yourself in a child's thoughts is an awfully difficult thing to do, and to carry it off as well as you have here is nothing short of phenomenal.
