Three Loves Have I
by
Hardy Parkerson
At night I lie and read in my abode
And suffer information overload.
So many books, so little time to read!
I'm learning now to read with greater speed.
My bookshelves are all filled,
My room's a mess.
I stumble over books, as I undress.
I doze and drop my book beside my bed
And fall asleep and dream of what I've read.
Of all the books I own I can't keep track.
Some say I'm just a bibl'omaniac.
But as you love your rod and reel and hooks;
Then just like you, I love my cache of books.
Three loves have I that always make my day:
Buying books, reading books and giving books away.
