By Hook or Crook

I love a book.

By hook or crook, I love a book
It takes me to places I’ve never been
And each page, chapter, and verse
Into a home I’ve never seen.

There are books on my bedside table
Others on the shelves already read
They are part of the design of my mind.
Reading’s a piece of my daily bread.
