Now this isn't the first poem I've ever written, but it is the first poem to be posted on this blog. This poem expresses my love of fiction and reading. I found the PERFECT picture to go along with this. Enjoy!
When the sad, cruel reality
Is chasing after me
I’ll escape into a book
And begin to read
Is chasing after me
I’ll escape into a book
And begin to read
I’ll turn the pages to a story
I’ll live inside the ink
When I’m inside a fantasy
I don’t care what others think
I’ll live inside the ink
When I’m inside a fantasy
I don’t care what others think
A juicy novel, or mystery
Where you have to solve a crime
Or a heart racing thriller
Where you travel back in time
Where you have to solve a crime
Or a heart racing thriller
Where you travel back in time
I’ll bite my nails during a fight
I’ll rejoice after a victory
I’ll cry over a hero’s death
I’ll pour myself into a story
I’ll rejoice after a victory
I’ll cry over a hero’s death
I’ll pour myself into a story
Yes- escape into a book!
I think that’s what I’ll do
Oh no! Look at this!
My dreaded taxes are overdue.
I think that’s what I’ll do
Oh no! Look at this!
