The Book

In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “Inspiration.”

My inspiration comes from reading.

You cannot open a book without learning something.

The Book

THERE is no frigate like a book
To take us lands away,
Nor any coursers like a page
Of prancing poetry.

This traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of toll;
How frugal is the chariot
That bears a human soul!

~~Emily Dickinson (1830–86)~~
