In the new world of books, Where the hungry mind's meal is cooked. Laid ancient artifacts. Golden treasure that the unborn yearn to behold. This treasure caught my busy sight, Which hungers for root of the rare gem. My legs drove me here like a fast bike. It covers 5 meters in a second, Just to take a glimpse this diamond. A mountain of books. An ocean of map, a guide to today's writers. Their quills had dried up long ago, Yet their words still drip ink on our tongues. Scrolls of Aristotle and Shakespeare won war. The war against time that makes things lost. Your words are not trend that are visitors. But your ink is like the earth that never stop. Your ink shine as though made now. I use your ink in writing this scroll. Ink men of today still drip your ink on their scroll. Will our ink still shine if time tests the scroll?
