Poem: The World within Books
Kamlesh Tripathi
*
Between heaven and humankind,
There stands a quiet respite,
The boundless world of books,
Where dreams get aligned.
*
A place of fascinating legends,
Of stories yet untold,
Where ink turns into magic,
And pages to gold.
*
Between God and mankind,
There exists the world of books,
A world of fairy tales,
That takes you to the realm of space.
*
Books whisper stories,
Books narrate episodes,
A treasure trove is hidden,
Between those tacit pages.
*
They speak in silent voices,
Yet thunder upon your soul,
They carry hidden treasures,
That brightens the life’s goal.
*
Within their illustrious pages,
Lie secrets of the past,
The present finds its meaning,
And the future is foretold.
*
The one who reads awakens,
To live a thousand lives,
Through grief and joy and wonder,
The searching spirit thrives.
*
But one who shuns their wisdom,
And let their pages sleep,
May wander through existence,
In slumber dark and deep.
*
Just as, once in Arden’s forest,
In … As You Like It,
Lover Orlando carved his plea,
Where trees became his books,
And their bark his thoughts to feel.
*
Words blooming on the branches,
Of longing’s living tree.
So too we write our journeys,
In the margins of the mind.
*
Books are living forests,
Where truth and beauty unite.
It’s like the old man sensing in the sea,
The dawn beyond the night.
*
A reader feels the morning,
Before the birth of light.
The world of quiet pages,
A sanctuary so bright.
Between the dust of earth and stars,
Books are our lamp of light.
**
Books are your best friends that live with you all your life.
