A book of poetry 

and wondrous sights

donated to the cancer fight

a disease that's fought

so hard to right.

Its pages full

of hope and joy

meant to uplift

and brighten

those who need it

the most,

will make you feel

spontaneous

and real.

The poems offer

a moment's peace,

to those who 

battle disease,

and in their minds, 

they're free to roam,

With a donated book 

that feels like home.
