I Read..

I jump into the open book,

I take it for a spin.

Immerse myself in words of love,

poetry and sin.

Uncover buried feelings,

I understand the plot.

Driving round the dialogue,

pausing at full stops.

Contemplating meaning,

and what it says to me.

Will it stay in my memories,

time will only see.

On reaching the destination,

I use the parking break.

To tour the land of literature,

is never a mistake.

I love the first line – I feel like I slide into a book slowly, and settle there comfy like in a warm bed 🙂
