Bookworms

The day, I was born,

he was there.

He came to visit us,

in the city of Tilburg.

December 6, 1972.

Every year, with New Year,

I was having lunch, dinner and breakfast.

The people in the other villages must have

heard, it.

But I saw the Light!

A bookworm eats through old pages

but parchment is too hard.

Parchment has a specific quality,

once you’ve taste it, you do not want

something else!!

When I entered, the village,

no one heard it.

Strange, you could, say.

I see his smile.

They glow in the dark.
