Books
satisfy the need
to read, to learn
to feed the mind,
to find a way forward

Books
sink a hook
into your heart,
the start of something,
unexpected

Books
are more than mere
collections of words,
of stories told, of pictures
to behold

Books
are the very thing
that shook the earth,
ideas that launched
intellectual rebirth
