A Book To Take Me
I like a book to take me
to a site by me unknown
though not necessarily
all that far from home
Though an action thriller
may land me in old Bahrain
'Discoveries in Neuroscience'
might reshape my whole brain
I like a book to teach me
something fresh, brand-new
What to feed my pet iguana
or how to build a canoe
Oh, what great glory
to curl up with an adventure story
or ponder viewpoints that inspire
And it's so comforting to know, for sure
~ I'll have more to read when I retire...
