In worlds beyond our own

Where anything can be shown

There lies a place of wonder
Where fiction takes us under
Characters come to life
In tales of love and strife
We watch them dance and sing
As the words on the page take wing
We travel to distant lands
With magic at our command
We fight with sword and shield
And the fate of the world is sealed
We learn to love and hate
As we read at a steady rate
We feel their joy and pain
As the story unfolds like a chain
With each page we turn
Our imagination burns
We see the world in a new light
As we read long into the night
Fiction is a place of escape
A world where we can reshape
We can be who we want to be
As we explore the depths of fantasy
So let us journey on
To the worlds that have gone
Let us embrace the fiction
And be lost in its addiction
For in these pages we find
A world of endless design
And in the stories we read
We find the life we want to lead.
