A poem about writing fiction

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.
