The mystery
The mystery and magic of fables and
legends stirs the heart of young and old.
Reading of castles, fairy princesses and
brave knights are a way to escape for just
a fleeting moment the cares and concerns
of this world. Please allow me to share
some of these with you. Let the wonder
of days of long ago thrill you once again.
"Books"
What worlds of wonder are our books!
As one opens them and looks,
New ideas and people rise
In our fancies and our eyes.
The room we sit in melts away,
And we find ourselves at play
With some one who, before the end,
May become our chosen friend.
Or we sail along the page
To some other land or age.
Here's our body in the chair,
But our mind is over there.
Each book is a magic box
Which with a touch a child unlocks.
In between their outside covers
Books hold all things for their lovers.
