Every time I lift a book new to me

Never touched nor read nor discussed

Chills run over me

Here could be such a treasure

Adventure may well lie ahead

New worlds and persons to explore

This is what enchants me about reading

My imagination is let loose within the pages

Each word draws me further in

Never wanting to close the book or reach

The End

For the challenge today I chose an Acrostic – simply because as soon as I looked at a favourite book (as suggested in the prompt) the poem practically leapt out at me!
