I write so you can read.
Feeling the need
to dream a world
in a book
that gives excitement
on a page
with a thrill.
A passion,
a wonder
of something fonder
to ponder.
Sometimes
creepy, wonderous
feelings
may spill upon you.
The words
spontaneous and trill
will captivate, motivate
and push you further
down the page,
enticing you still
to read on
to the end.
Fiction books
catch your eye
words deepen emotions
of life in a story
that surreptitiously pulls
you in, secrets revealed
in plots and characters
ceremoniously raptured in thick
wording paragraphs, a leap
into adventure,
a wonder enthralled into
readers' minds.
Authors of fiction
should be greatly
glorified, because a whole
book of words
is a hardship to occur.

>That was a bad idea. I thought you knew… >Oh, the pathos! I don’t really know you as well as I should. In fact, I may not know the real you at all. That essential, sparkling you that you only reveal to a select few. Had I been paying more attention to the stories you are so fond of telling, in which you are invariably author, narrator and protagonist, I would not have been so foolish as to set you up on a blind date. After all, no friend has ever done anything of the kind for another. That’s preposterous. What is a friend, really?
