Buried deep
in the cosmos of my existence
lie words
hidden, mysterious, powerful-
cozy in the joyous comfort
of a boisterous book.
Nothing matters then.
The world may swirl around
for all I know -
it is the warm embrace of a book
that twirls me around
on tip toe at times,
a salsa at other times,
but always for me-
just me and the words
that sigh, sing and shout
all at once.
Oh! for the love of it.....

"Books can take you on a journey, without taking a single step."
My class teacher said that, a long time ago. Reading through this poem brought it back to mind.
Hi Arnab. Glad my poem good help you go back in time. Thanks....
Agree with you. Books are the greatest friends on loneliest days and nights.....
I agree. I always have a book or two on the go. However, when I travel, I like my eBook reader.
Thanks Geeta. Just can't imagine a life without books.
Thanks Kay. Same here. Always have a book with me. Haven't tried the eBook though...
