These Shoes of Mine
Activity: write a tribute to something that you own or have
Tribute to a book
Paper and ink, glue and thread;
such are the ingredients for an adventure.
How often has this been said,
how often have poets and philosophers ruminated
upon the power of such a simple medium.
This book has seen many miles,
many adventures, has related many sagas
all the same, yet all different,
experienced through the lens of many lives
and many ages.
Computers, and their games, pale with time
becoming obsolete, beaten, boring.
But a book will hold its appeal for countless generations,
a tribute to the author and his imagination.
A good book has a soul,
and it is the only thing in this world
that is truly immortal.
