The Bookworm

A poem about a person who loves books

The bookworm reads many books
Paperbacks, hardcovers, and even nooks
The bookworm reads a poem a day
The emotions are imagery, washes her sorrows away
The bookworm writes many reviews
She updates herself on the latest book news
The bookworm talks on podcasts at night
Appreciating people who are able to write
The bookworm spends most of her days
At the library writing book essays

The bookworm runs a local book club
Talking about “Behind Closed Doors”
She loves B.A. Paris
The psychological thriller is a sensation she can’t ignore
The bookworm enjoys being alone
Enjoying the classics by the fire at home
The bookworm is an introvert, like me
Escaping to fictional realities to soar and run free
