It brought about some funny looks –
And not just one or two –
Your offering your cherished books
To everyone you knew.
You’d read them with a burning mind
On some or other day –
A passion which you’ve left behind
Or lost along the way.
So now your books don’t correspond
To where you find yourself;
Your being stretches far beyond
The contents of some shelf.
You’re in the place you’re meant to be
And feel as if you’ve broken free.
