The Rainbow Book
Her Hands stroked the book’s pages
And her eyes flickered to each line.
Her eyes glistened in the light
She brushes the hair from her face
Her kind attaches itself to the story
She’s trapped in it.
Her hand writes down words.
Nonsense.
Light
But they have meaning to her,
Darkness
Each word was life.
Read more…
Reading and writing is her passion.
Life
The words remained in her mind.
Spirit
She reads the book…
Faster
And faster
Until she can’t stop
She can’t even look up
When the teacher calls her name.
The words become sentences
And her mind becomes curious.
She looks up now,
Into her teachers eyes.
She opens her mouth and says,
I’m Reading.
But the teacher doesn’t understand the real words she’s speaking.
It’s more than just reading.
More important
It’s life
More
It’s inspiring
More…
It’s life changing.
It’s just…
That simple.
