Books, important things

Full of knowledge

Truth and lies

Freedom to think

Words have strength

Shout out loud

Of time and history.

So many subjects

Art, Biology, Cheese and wine

Gullivers travels

Earth and sky.

Let them live,

Don’t ban books

Or burn them

Fahrenheit 451

Flames lick away

Knowledge, peace, understanding

A bookshelf a day

Keeps misunderstanding

At bay.
