library

the books
standing
orderly
in their
shelves,
each with
their own
identity,
each day
some travel,
but come
morning,
they are
all
once again
quiet and
at home.

Bliss  (etheree)

Cool
crisp air
sweet chirpings
whispering leaves
carefree clouds sailing
across the azure sky
soft glow of the evening sun
soulful song and divine coffee
old book smell speaking ancient secrets
words dancing delightfully in mind's eyes

a skimmer of stones on the surface of knowledge

a mere dilettante, of course,
I struggle to look deeper
into the pond, when there are
so many rivers

I should go out more
and more I stay at home
with my books
I know how it looks    ..

they’re not just books

books you fall in love with are friends, just by dint of falling in love with them

just talk amongst yourselves

didn’t have many
friends to
start with I was sitting in the pub
with a book didn’t
exactly help
matters not,
since I was engrossed
in the book

Reflections

My mirror is a compulsive liar,
that hangs upon my wall.
It lies, it cheats, until I weep,
as it stands above so tall.

Why I read

Some of my most valuable experiences
     were other people's.

maybe too many books

you said I have to get rid of some of my books
are taking over the
house. I said really, which ones?
