B-O-O-K-S

To Thalia,
This poem came to me as we walked home from the library.

We love to read books every day
B-O-O-K-S

With their colorful pictures
Imagining
Different places
Different thoughts
Many feelings
Many faces
All from the words that sing

Oh, how we love to read books every day
B-O-O-K-S

Open the cover
And we soon see
All the diversity
That makes our world
Exciting to be
A part of its magnificence

Yes, we love to read books every day
B-O-O-K-S

Now, close the book and your eyes
Take a moment to visualize
A place that is yet to exist
An idea no one has shared
A picture only you can create
Dream
Imagine
Believe
Of all the possibilities

We love to read books every day
B-O-O-K-S
