Drawn up through earth's roots,
harvested, recycled, and refined,

In a far away land/Where I need never cry
Past the Doors of War Drobe/There sits my Mind's Eye.

History has been made
with Tolkien sweat is has been paid.

Friends,I'll be picky when looking for my treasure
Some I won't see deeply into, others I'll know better

-
Right now, they're all I have.

There are many who would much rather look
At images on screen than read a book.

In her mind she has dreamt every book on the shelf
Every page every line every word was her own

I first was befriended by Nancy and co.,
Then redheaded Anne, and so on and so.

By silly things like tears.

The pages unfold
The passage is open
-
only pages of fantasies
kindle the flame of my passion…

The pen sweeps over
the paper which was primed for
