Old books
The smell of old books, lasting centuries
verses on nature, war, love or God
oral traditions keeping them alive, set to music,
or inked on paper, passions ignited, souls revived.
The smell that wafts over as one turns the pages
history, culture, legends and myths a rich legacy.
One seeks them out in antique book shops
a foray into a long-forgotten world in books
that outlive men.
Miss Lewis
Grammar-school Latin teacher
and church organist
each week she gave up free time
for two of us who wanted to learn Greek.
When I left school she gave me,
an unbeliever, the Greek New Testament.
Here it is, fifty years later,
grey jacket showing signs of wear.
It rubs shoulders with Salman Rushdie,
swaps stories with Barbara Kingsolver.
