i smell the words that leap off the page

hypnotizing my mystified brain

many eyes have perused its pages

imagined worlds with unknown faces

many hands have caressed its spine

turned endless pages in the dead of night

many mouthes have spoken aloud the words

to many children who listened to their first

these old, crumbling pages whisper tales as old of time

and now the next tale to be told happens to be mine
