STELLA

by derek garner - Virgo

many pass you.....
trapped beneath that valley
of intellect.
horn-rimmed intellect.
they no longer turn you,
turn to you.
choosing instead to boot up,
log-on,
refresh.
Now they are radiated.
but I will follow you
every night in my bed I will hold
you close.
falling asleep to your words.
Many have loved and lost
and loved and lost again,
but I was hooked when 
I first laid eyes on your 
paperback.

Reason for writing:

    My first love was books
