ESCAPE THE ORDINARY

Escape the ordinary.

Conquer new frontiers.

Pursue adventures.

Read a book.

You won’t be disappointed.

READ ME A TALE

by  eyeris

Read me a tale, grandfather,

of battles and dead bodies.

Turn the pages, grandfather,

of the book of horrors.

Tell me more stories, grandfather,

of evil armies and sadness.

I will close my eyes, grandfather,

and wish the darkness away.

READ A BOOK

In a quiet spot

On a soft chair

In the sun’s spotlight

I will read a book

Eyes wide open

Pages turning

Sunlight streaming in

I will read a book

Hands trembling

Tears falling

Sun warming my body

I will read a book

OPEN A BOOK

Read a book.

You might be pleasantly surprised.

Or maybe not.

Imagination knows no bounds.

A QUIET SPOT

 (Source: bloodandchampagne.com)

In a quiet spot.

On a soft chair.

In the sun’s spotlight.

I will read a book.

Eyes wide open.

My mind set to explore.

Sunlight streaming in.

I will read a book.

Hands trembling.

Tears falling.

Sun warming my body.

I will read a book.

TO BE OR NOT TO BE

To be or not to be a writer
has been the hardest question for me.
Should I continue with my pursuit,
or step away and claim defeat?
One book was written,
one book sold.
It dances around on Amazon and Nook.
It reaches new heights in its niche,
and then it slowly bows its head in silence.
The highs feel good and lofty,
While the lows feel depressing and sad.
Is it worth it? 
Is it worth the aggravation?
I am told that a writer must keep writing.
More books to dance around.
More highs and lows.
Should I keep doing this?
Will I keep doing this? 
Yes, for now
as I wait for the next high. 

A BOOK FOR ME

amandaonwriting:

South Africa’s first-ever Book Hotel, the Royal, in Bethulie

Imagine a place like this.

The perfect hotel of bliss.

Endless books to read.

Nothing else I’d need.

Walls of books everywhere.

All you need is a chair.

Never run out of a book.

Just pick your favorite nook.

Read the day away.

Nothing else to say.

A BOOK

Open a book.
You will be amazed
by what you’ll find.
Your mind will open
to new thoughts and ideas.
A whole world awaits.

A BOOK NOT READ

Nothing more sad.

Nothing more shameful.

Than a book not read.

A book lost to time.

 

YOUR DESTINY

Source:slobbering 

Open the book.

Read the words.

Take the journey.

To worlds unknown.

To freedom of expression.

To your destiny.

OLD BOOKSTORE

aurelielise-anne

Why don’t we have these anymore?

Books covering ceiling to floor.

Happiness between the binding.

What a perfect and safe finding.

Read in the candlelight.

Nothing can be as right.

Pictures and words before my eyes.

Reading about truth and some lies.

You’ll definitely find me hiding.

The tall shelves of books I’ll be minding.

THE BOOK

THE BOOK

Please take a closer look.
Something’s wrong with this book.
The words have come alive,
Breaking free to survive.
Words need to be loved and shared
And not forced alone and scared.
Let the stories come out and play.
They will serve to brighten your day.

ALIVE

ALIVE

Our minds can soar

to the heavens above.

They can reach new heights

like the flight of a dove.

Imagination keeps us fresh.

Keeps our minds alive.

Don’t live your life

to barely survive.

Dream of fresh ideas.

New places to explore.

Ways to expand your knowledge.

Until you reach for more.

Plugged In

No time to read.

No time to relax.

Running on empty.

Ears plugged in.

Brain plugged out.

No way to live.

A QUIET SPOT FOR YOUR IMAGINATION

A QUIET SPOT

In a quiet spot.

On a soft chair.

In the sun’s spotlight.

I will read a book.

Eyes wide open.

Mind set to explore.

Sunlight streaming in.

I will read a book.

Hands trembling.

Tears falling.

Sun warming my body.

I will read a book.

LIVE THE STORY

by Karolina Danek

Books change me.

They influence me.

Make me theirs.

I become their characters.

I live their stories.

CARRY ON

Hit me.

Strike me.

I will carry on.

Soak me.

Shake me.

I will carry on.

Sink me.

Drown me.

I’ll still be here.

So sweet and pure.

Let it be free.

To swim once more.

TRAPS

“Spider Engineers” (1956)

Traps to set.

We set for ourselves.

With lies and deceit.

And so much to hide.
