Books for Escaping
Divider
In your hands you hold - a book
Divider
You turn its pages
Divider
to find a small quick bubble
Divider
of laughter, rising to delight you.
Divider
Tears to be shedding hard,
Divider
to make old friends,
Divider
leaving the here and now,
Divider
travelling in other times and places.
Divider
Exploring who you are
Divider
and what you might be.
Divider
Being yourself
Divider
some whole new other person
Divider
for awhile.
