Library Poem by Lorraine Margueritte Gasrel Black

Library

Rating: 5.0


One's dream realised
The honor of a book
Within the realm idolized
Shelved for another look

Plumbed the depth of knowledge
Imprints the world of truth
Within the ivory tower
Words of myths or proofs

Hungry and in quest of
All the old time lore
Poems and fiction writings
Some graffitied on the wall

Inspiration flowing
New works strive
To fill the stage once empty
The actors come alive.

libraries are indeed wonderful places, where you are able to research any topic, or even to go back in history to another era. And a book is an honour, whether it is one we read, or one we have written ourselves! Thank you for this poem!
