Black marks on white paper do not merely transmit meaning. There is magic in that portal through which a child can enter a multi-colored world through it.

Books are grand and books are keen...The very best, that I have seen. The books that I have read...Are the best that I, reread. Turning the pages can make me sad...Yet of others that make me glad. Books of some past, have been burned...And of others, have I learned. Books are the gateway to the mind of heart...Books are the works of some genius'es art. For had i thought to read much younger...My reading appetite would have yearned a much appealing hunger. Great write that inspired this verse...I only hope that mine is not worse. An easy ten given here Thad. God bless us all-MJG.
