On The Shelf

On  the Shelf !

Pick up a book, 

Take a look! 

Feel those pages, 

Creamy from ages.

Pick up a book, 

Then get hooked, 

Feel the fear, 

Imagine so the plot comes clear. 

Pick up a book,

Retreat to your nook,

Lose yourself,

Just reach up to that shelf. 

Leave the screen, 

Caress those precious pages of cream,

Delve deep into your mind 

Leave mundane reality far, far, behind. 

Pick up a book, 

Go on take a look !
