Books Fall Open
Books fall open,
You fall in . . .
Delighted where
You've never been;
Hear voices not once
Heard before,
Reach world on world
Through door on door;
Find unexpected
Keys to things
Locked up beyond
Imaginings.
What might you be,
Perhaps become,
Because one book
Is somewhere?
Some
Wise delver into
Wisdom, wit
And wherewhithal
Has written it.
True books will venture,
Dare you out,
Whisper secrets
Maybe shout
Across the gloom
To you in need,
Who hanker for
A book to read.
