MOVING THE LIBRARY

Shelves packed to overflowing

Oh what an eyesore!

Now they stand empty.

The books are no more.

One by one each was touched

Caressing each one with longing,

Knowing many will soon be gone

No longer belonging.

Box after box packed so full

Because all must be moved.

So many books to handle,

A cause to be behooved!

Now all is done, shelves are bare

Awaiting their new home,

A quiet place of solitude

Without electronics or a phone!

Now the shelving must be handled

Strong muscles needed for the task.

And I wonder just who will be

The one I find courage to ask.

Remember the wisdom of one so old

Younger friends are quite an asset!

Muscle and brawn are sometimes needed

To help with certain facets.

Thank You God that the packing up of all the books is completed.

Thank You for providing someone to help us move the shelving even though I don’t know who it will be.

Thank You for all the dedicated writers that put so much study and effort in order to write their books.

Thank You Lord that I have the ability to read!

HAVE A GREAT DAY!  GOD BLESS YOU.
