Poetry of My Life

Chapter one

It was a cold night

And our young girl is...

How do you like that as a start

Of a book

Yes

You heard me

A book

Not your phone

Not your laptop

Not your tv

A book

Something you haven't heard

Haven't use

Haven't read

For a long time

How far is a book away from you?

Something that doesn't hurt your eyes

Something that doesn't change with a swipe

Something that needs to be changed

By a flip

Flip the page

To the next chapter

It's something that starts

Way too long ago

And it shouldn't stop

Anytime soon

Or anytime in the future

Put down your phone

Close your laptop

Turn off your tv

Go somewhere else

Pick up a book

No matter what kind

Pick it up

Turn to page one

And start reading

Chapter one
