Booker loved to read.
Anytime,
Any place,
Awake or asleep,
Booker just consumed books.
Big cozy blankets with books close at hand,
an oversized chair, "hot chocolate, please," asks my demand.
Quickly vanished into a novel, without even a care,
ask where I've gone--if you even still dare!
Off to adventures, round-n-round and afar,
pink flying dragons, "how frightfully bizzare!"
Castles with treasures, with volcanoes that rumble,
"Oh, my sheer happiness," finding books by the bundle!
Adrift on a ship holding five golden keys,
sunshine and pirates with a warm ocean breeze.
Wind gusts waft with saltwater and sea foam,
lull'd into calmness, finally heading for home!
"Sweet jelly-jammer," bells continued to ring.
"Is that my alarm clock or sister trying to sing?
'Twas my book, of course, that Captain Momma was ready to seize!"
