Feast Upon Your Words
Greetings to all literary ghosts
haunting old books like attentive hosts.
What secrets will you reveal tonight;
or magic wish will you bring to light?
Adventure appeals to every age;
when stories flow from the written page.
Will you sail a pirate ship with me;
our hearts in tune with the wind and sea?
Perhaps instead, we will chart the stars;
or peruse ancient scrolls stored in jars.
And turn shards of exaggeration;
into gems of imagination.
Is it your subtle wisdom I'll find;
wafting into my subconscious mind?
Tell me tales of love and fledgling birds;
for I wish to feast upon your words.
