Oh The Places You'll Go

Books are so amazing. Hope you enjoy the poem.

Oh The Places You’ll Go

I read my way through stories

Which saturate my soul

And I long that I could be there

Through those magic lands I’d stroll

I’d love to see the Isle of Berk

In the Barbaric Archipelago

Where Vikings sang and dragons flew

Through skies I’m sure I’d know

Or Hogwarts Castle shining bright

Against the backdrop of the night

And stare up at lake sodden stars

And point at light blue flying cars

Or walk along the great stone Wall

With talking cats and living Dead

Whilst 1920s England doth reside

Upon the other side

Through Ancient Rome

With kid detectives

Or the ruins of London

With zombies infective

Great cities trundle

Through muddy wastes

Pursued by a girl with

A ruined face

Twelve year old genius

Almost starts a war

With the race of fairies

Beneath the floor

Seven demesnes

Seven Trustees

Combined form the House

Ruled with seven keys

A million fictions

I long to explore

When I no longer watch

But step through a door
