#103 – Ocean of Books

Ocean of Books
Frankly, this is pretty close to my idea of heaven

Ocean of Books

There’s an ocean of books around me
stretching out for as far as I see.
It’s as deep and as wide as can be.
I am lost in an ocean of books.

Past the poems and novels I spy
waves of words and of writing roll by
through the stories in endless supply,
all a part of this ocean of books.

With these limitless volumes about,
I am trapped and I don’t have a doubt
that I’ll just have to read my way out
of this ongoing ocean of books.

There’s an ocean of books around me
stretching out for as far as I see.
It’s the best thing that’s happened to me;
being lost in this ocean of books.

Andrew goes back to school today. Since it’s the end of a long weekend for him, I thought I’d make his day a little brighter with a dog drawing since those are always his favorite. Side note: this one didn’t make it back home, and Andrew was devastated.
