I am almost at the one year anniversary of my blog! Maybe one more month and I can actually go back to the specific date and repost. https://fivedotoh.com/2020/08/21/fandangos-friday-flashback-august-21/
For now I will look for something, maybe on the 21st of another month.

Books…
My thoughts on books…
I wrote four and published them for children.
I love to read, or used to love it, and hoping that with the new book I won last week that I regain my love. I never lost it, just lost the motivation to sit and read and concentrate on what I was reading. I think the concentration is key. Not that it has to be for intellectual knowledge, but just so I don’t have to reread the same page over and over…
I just got a story published in two magazines!
I write every day and hope to have more books published! Non-fiction and fiction for children.
Books
White pages yellowing
Hard covers softening
Words melding together
Offer
Escape
Experiences
Entertainment
Enlightenment
Bright laminated pages
Bright white screen
Technology doesn’t print
Less to hold
But for some
Holding a book is part of the
Offering
Escape
Experiences
Entertainment
Enlightenment
In bed
At the beach
In the yard
Alone
Together
Bound like pages in a book

Yes! The feel of a book in your hands can’t compare to a kindle or other e-reader! I must be able to turn the page, feel the edge of the paper, savor the words without the eye strain of technology! Your poem captured it beautifully!
