Life Changing
Location
Once upon a time I read a book
That one book turned into two
two turned into four, into eight.
Each book was like a journey
through an alternate universe
through a post-apocalyptic society
The black type and white pages
become vivid color pictures
my imagination grows with the turn of a page
Once upon a time I read a book
I devoured sequels, trilogies, and saga's
and more series than I have fingers
My vocabulary has notably enhanced
I formed friendships with fellow bookworms
English essays are a cakewalk
The problems of the world don't exist in the pages of a book
TV is boring and the computer is dull
I create stories of my own
Once upon a time I read a book
That one book changed my life
maybe this poem will change yours?
