Books

Book Club
Has been a great way
To meet new friends.
I fell in love with
Willa Cather,
Who I never met in high school.
And the "Lonely Passion of
Judith Hearn" haunts me.
"Beloved" Toni Morrison
Taught me a whole new language.
And Bill Bryson always
Makes me laugh.
Books have given me insight
Into other cultures and
Other lives.
They have added to my
Own personal experience.
And isn't that
What friends are for?
