Lift my chunky syllables, my pounds of nouns,
my burly verbs.
Raise me above your head, feel the quiet weight
of words.

Stack by stack, shelf by shelf,
I pick out books all by myself.
Page by page, line by line,
word by word,
I make books mine.

My library comes into view.
Almost there!
I sprint the last few yards,
charge up the stone steps, breathless, and push through the double doors, smiling at the sweet kingdom of story inviting me in.

As she speaks words
leap from pages—
there are friends like frog and toad—
I walk
down a
yellow brick road.
