Bookworms, rejoice!

Pages hold the worlds
Ink and dreams entwined as one
Books, life’s magic scrolls

Whispered tales unfold
Ink on parchment weaves its spell
Worlds within a book

Characters waltz
Wisdom weaves inked dreams so bright
Joy in books’ warm hug

A day of books embraced by bibliophiles with delight.
Happy Book Lovers Day!

I love books! So, upon discovering that this year’s August 9 marks National Book Lover’s Day, thanks to an informative article by Melissa Gouty I felt compelled to write something inspired by books.

Briefly, National Book Lover’s Day is a day meant to honor the power of the written word, cherished by book lovers, and calling all book lovers to come find comfort in a cozy corner with a book and relish the act of reading. Take your pick, from well-worn classics to contemporary marvels — The world of books offers everything from escape to education and enlightenment.

So, my fellow book lovers — go ahead, pick a book, and prepare to embark on a journey of words, imagination, and connection, honoring the timeless allure of books.

I hope you enjoy the poem and maybe even join me in this celebration!

Happy Book Lover’s Day!

Thank you for reading.
