The Book

I have crossed many rivers before and I will cross many more.
Many waters I have waded, by a sun once bright, now faded.
Over rocks I have stumbled, over hills I have tumbled.
As long as the book is near, my journeys I shall hold dear.
I have travelled through space and time; images sublime.
Valleys high and low I have adored; caves dark and deep I have explored.
Strange people I have met and yet, I have not one regret.
Nevertheless, I travel on to worlds unknown, for I am not alone.
All it took, was one long look at the amazing and marvelous book.
