At DVerse, Frank is challenging us to write acrostic poems. I really enjoy acrostic poems and write them fairly often, but it was hard for me to write one that I felt like posting. This one was inspired by a library (again), because I volunteered at my city’s library today.
Let me linger amid these
Incredible stories, poems, testimonies of
Being human, living — fiction or
Reality, all reveal a piece of
Authentic truth, and in
Reading, I give wisdom to my
Young and sponge-like mind.

Nice praise of libraries! There is a piece of authentic truth in all those books. Even the heart soaks up some of that wisdom.

I’m trying to think who had the quote…I imagine heaven to be like a library…or somewhat close. Keep writing these poems about libraries! I love libraries. This poem is excellent.
