On a cold winter’s day
When you’re ready to slip away
From this ordinary place
Into imaginary space
Set your mind free
With a cup of tea
In your own cozy and warm bed
Ready to take the next step
Pick up a book and read the words
Let go of all your concerns
The story will take you there
And you’ll be walking on air
It’s the magic of a writer
Who can be an overnighter
But when you’re too tired to stay up
Close your eyes and walk through
A dream where only books can take you
