For the Love of It!

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.....
