The first time I travelled back in time - John K. King in Detroit
Come with me
To a magical place
A portal back in time
Where the floors creak
And the air is fragrant
With well read pages and worn leather
Four floors stacked floor to ceiling more books than could be explored
Roam the aisles
With no computer guides
Searching for the perfect book
How about old history books
About countries forgotten?
Antiquated medical guides?
Propaganda from wars fought long ago?
Or perhaps you prefer something a bit more recent?
Whatever the case may be
They have the perfect book for you
But if you decide
To go and explore
Be careful
Because it is oh too easy to get lost in these halls
As you transcend back in time
