I happened upon some lovely book-related things… a picture and a poem. I am not certain who wrote the poem, I found it in a book but it says it was written anonymously (I found out who it was, see below). I will share them both with you. I hope you like them.

The poem:

I’ve travelled [sic] the world twice over,

Met the famous; saints and sinners,

Poets and artists, kings and queens,

Old stars and hopeful beginners.

I’ve been where no one’s

been before,

learned secrets from writers

and cooks,

All on one library ticket

To the wonderful work of books.
