Poem: The Book Nook

-

In my dream house 
so many books
on tables and 
scattered on the carpet
hard backed and soft covers
a rainbow of colors
and cream colored pages
that whisper the secrets
hidden in their letters 
and a secret lever 
on the shelf
leads to a secret nook 
where I can read 
in heavenly quiet
and in blissful pleasure
