  • NOBLE POETRY  

  • All you need is a library 📚

    All you need is a library;

    A roadmap to the real or the imaginary.

    A portal to different nations;

    All books are destinations.

     

    The Librarian is a tour guide,

    Infomation, she will provide.

    The index she will show you,

    to help you find Timbuktu.

     

    The aisles form crisscrossing roads,

    Where books lead to crossroads,

    Or scenic view points to discover:

    such lovely places to linger.

     

    A mysterious map to hidden treasures;

    A start to many adventures.

    New escape routes will unravel,

    To the past, present and future, you will travel. 
     

    Down the canyons rattles the trolley-tram,

    Beware of the book traffic jam.

    From your reverie, you shall be woken,

    But your bond will never be broken.

     

    All you need is a library;

    A roadmap to the real or the imaginary.

    A portal to different nations;

    All books are destinations.
