April, Poetry Month - Day 27 - Books!

 

        The bookmark, on top of the picture above, came into the bookstore at the end of March. Often people do donate books and leave 'treasures' in them. This time, it became my own treasure and I knew what I would do for April's poetry, write about found treasures, perhaps find new places to look? Happy April!

Plus! Check each day for the added line to the Progressive Poem, created by Irene Latham, now hosted by Margaret Simon! The link is to the right!  

How could I not write about. . . 

        BOOKS!

 

I call it book, others might

name it opus, primer, scroll

 

nevertheless, for each

 

enticing, like cake icing

leaflet, treatise, omnibus

no matter what, they reach

 

satisfactory paperback,

tract and periodical  

 

                                                                              no matter what, they teach
