Friend

Books and Journals

opened to read

Comes across treasures

Hither to unheard

Breath of surprise

every new morning

Wisdom of the ages

lies hidden in pages

Shrewdly attempt

to open the one mart

Even without curd

poverty no bar

Pain and struggle

so powerful and central

Conspirators of generations

attempts to disrupt schedule

Comes on the way

to disturb concentration

Temporarily suffered a Jerk

Yet arose with helpful friend.
