Books

Books! Books! Books! Who doesnt love books!

Who remembers being a young child in school and being all excited it was Library day! Books on the shelf in the library are like picking a dozen donuts from the bakery display you just know all of them are good and satisfying but which ones to start on!

I confess I'm not a very well read reader.. theres many great books and book series out there I have not read but the upside to this dilema is that I can discover them now. I love the world of possibliites books can bring. Escaping into stories of adventure we ride along with the main character.. gasping as each page turned brings us closer to the details of his current peril!

Losing ourselves from days reality as we read stories of fantasy.. flying on a magic carpet or ridding unicorns through the pages of magical lands, faries fly alongside us as we expierence the journey imagination takes us on.

We test our minds in mystery's, flipping the pages back and forth to make sure weve caught and deduced the clues only to chuckle when at the end its revealed in the final pages
..the butler really did do it!!

Reliving events of the past in books on history placing ourselves at the great battles, grasping a better understanding of the choices our leaders made in defending our lands. Marveling at the great strategy's of leaders past.

and last but best.. comedys. I truly loved reading Erma Bombeck! She had a way of writing she could take a common everyday event and lace it with her unique brand of humor and turn it into a great comedic adventure! I could sit and read her books for hours! If ever I were to have any ounce of ambition for being a writer in life.. its Erma Bombeck Id aspire to be most like. I just love when humor can be found in even the darkest of moments its that positive spark that always shows ...hope remains.

I have rambled on today.. but thats the name of the blog afterall!
Thank you for reading!

Here in closing, is todays poem:

Books

Some will judge its content just by its outter look,
Some will find interest with the presence of a hook,
Some will venture inward and find treasures of all kinds
Each finds something different it all depends upon their minds

Some have come to knowledge and wisdom far and wide
Because some have had the desire to discoer what's inside
Some will teach great lessons or have adventures of every kind
Oh their tales will come alive when imagination rules your mind!!

Let your own life be an adventure, solve a mystery or learn to cook
All these things YOU can do , You'll find the fun in BOOKS!!
