How do you read?
Are you quick or slow?
Do you cherish the details or skim the purple prose?
Why did you start? Do you enjoy it so?
To pass the time, to learn, to grow.
These are some reasons, I suppose.
Do you read in bed or sit in a corner?
Do you forget all the details or are you a fast learner?
Do you need to escape, to hide and then seek?
Or are you the one who can't resist taking a peek?
At enchanting fantasies, magical worlds and seekers of fortunes?
Do you read to decipher once legendary runes?
What about snacks? Do you have those?
I'm sure you've enjoyed whatever you chose.
I could sit forever and read and hide,
In the place where I reside.
Enjoying the magic, horror and wonder,
Getting all cosy with the blanket I'm under.
Why don't you pick up some books and try something you like?
You can always put aside those you dislike.
So pick up a book and immerse yourself,
Then when you're finished, PUT IT BACK ON THE SHELF!
