Magic of Words
Open the cover of a book
A whole new world to view
Worth your time to take a look
Learning experience and fun too
Imagination....what a wonderful thing
Like a movie screen in your mind
What image will the next word bring?
Read on....see what you can find
A way to broaden your horizons
Or a temporary escape from stress
Just two of many reasons
Why this past time is the best
Fairy tales and true stories
So many topics to feast upon
From Cinderella to biographies
Literary legends will live on
Learn about a far away place
Assorted customs, facts and lore
Go back in time or to outer space
Pick up a book to open a door
Embrace this wonder of our world
Take advantage of this gift to all
So many authors wait to be heard
Listen....can you hear them call?
