Open a book and a new world awaits.
Between these pages adventure is there.
A nice little slice of comfort creates.
Romance, crime, fantasy and more to bear.
Meeting characters, getting to know them.
Hours of joy simply feel like a second.
Look up from the pages, this was a gem.
Your love comes as if they had been beckoned.
You tell them of tales big ones and small.
Each tale is from another universe.
Sitting they quietly listen to all.
As you speak your love takes in every verse.
You are worlds away but somehow still near.
Connected back in the world with you here.
