House made of books
walls of magic
words, floors thick
with flying carpets
windows of dream
without doors – only
portals to other
times and places,
whole universes
in your hands
nested lifetimes
to live and revisit
all in good time

Beautiful! Sounds like a lovely place to be 🙂
This was enchanting. Magic indeed.
Jennifer!! As someone with many unread books lining the walls I can certainly relate. I had a fantasy while driving today that I could just occupy Willie T and keep it for myself and not eat or drink but just… read.
Goals, my friend…
“nested lifetimes” is lovely. Nice writing, Jennifer.
