I Love The Library
By Margaret Lottridge
My favourite books are in junior section
by Erin Hunter whose name I mention
with hopes for new ones coming this year
sometimes I like to sit on the mat
with my younger sister Pat
for storytime and puppet shows
dad reads news at back tables
pages crinkle as he turns them
car repair books stacked beside him
carrying May issue of Country Living
a book CD called Monday Mourning
mom finds LP westerns for grandpa
aunt Samantha has no time to visit
she orders books on-line or by phone
and picks up them on her way home
big brother Jim doesn’t read much
but he books a computer for an hour
to chat with friends ‘n such
there’s always new things happening here
people bring stories of travels or how to hunt deer
a tea party with music for grandma and friends
a boy named Kyle gives lessons to grandma
on computers and how to teach grandpa
who comes to tai chi monday mornings
then there’s yoga on chairs for seniors
yoga on floors for baby and mom
and for me where I stand, sit or hum
