Every day provides us with an opportunity to celebrate life. Today I’m celebrating one of my favorite activities reading, on National Read a Book Day! Books have always brought me a lot of joy. I could escape into various worlds, times, and experiences. I read every day, sometimes for fun, sometimes to learn, and sometimes to keep abreast of what’s going on in the world.
My love of reading a variety of books inspired today’s poem. I hope you enjoy it.
