Poem -Journey To The Books

Journey to the books In the morning I wake  The window shows a lake Just getting down from the stairs  To have a milkshake Gathering up my goods And struggling through the woods To see how the market looks  It’s a journey to my books   I’m just seeing all the shops  People who mind their jobs Some people out for a walk   And the people buying mops I just want a mirror to see my looks It’s a journey to my books Finally, I now reached the Library To read my favourite books on bravery  No one needs a particular look It was a lovely JOURNEY TO MY BOOKS
