This is a persona poem written from the point of view of a book. Enjoy.
when i get picked up
i feel your hands warm like the sun
wanting to read my contents
for fun
or consolation

but when i am returned
to my resting place
the wood grips me
assuring me
that there is no return to your kingdom

where we share knowledge
stories and advice
but i have to hope, and dream
that literature is the one and only gift
one needs, to live happily
