I am in love with the words on the page.

Every emotion quietly engraved

yet read it aloud and get a twinge down the spine

echoing tales of heroism and love divine.

Magicians, the writers of the world all are,

wishers granted their desires by stars.

Their worlds are their’s and theirs alone

Every kingdom with a golden throne

Every planet with weather fair

Oh, how I wish I was there!

I am in love with the words on the page.

Each a history of a mythical age,

each a prayer for a new beginning and happy end

to every desire the words will tend

and I am in love with the stories they told

They keep me alive, they never get old.
