Flipping pages
Posted on 16. Mar, 2010 by Barry Hurd in Daily thoughts
As a child, I learned of life through the pages of a book.
Curiously browsing through the isles of thought
contained within parchment and paragraphs,
detailed within black and white.
Words became something I cherished,
While sometimes I fell in love with the characters,
or the perfection of a simple guide of “how to”
I always found room for more.
Then I grew, both up and older
finding the best parts of epic tales, the detail of life
to be trapped within each binding,
The essence of the writer mine to understand.
