My brainy books, you inspire me to write.
How I love the way your pages flip,
Invading my mind day and through the night,
Always dreaming about the keen endings

Let me compare you to a third party?
You are more edgy, glorious and strange.
Cold frost nips the robins of December,
And wintertime is when I, because of you, change

How do I love you? Let me count the ways.
I love your menacing charm, style and grace.
Thinking of your pleasant style fills my days.
My love for you is the tender , oh yes it is.

Now I must away with a sublime heart,
Remember my green words whilst we're apart.

Lovely ode on books!!!
According to me, there are three types of friends...
1. Fake friends
2. Good friends
3. True friends who never leave your hand
Books fall to the third category...The knowledge and the wisdom and the thoughts you get in your mind through them, always would lend you a hand...
