Thoughts of the day drift away
once I walk into my door
there is no more loud noises
from the outside world
I am safe in my home
I take off my shoes put them away
go to my quiet place
I get my book and read
everything arounds me changes
it takes me to far away places
and on many journeys
and teaches me new things
without having to leave my bedroom

terrific
This is excellent sweetheart. Just like I was telling you; when you take time after school for some peace and quiet it helps rebuild your spirit and make you feel better; especially if you've had a hard day. Reading is certainly one of the ways to find peace within yourself. Keep up the good work.
I love you.

All the best in my contest
very pleasant journey into different world
