Growing Through Reading

In the pages of books, I found my way,

Through stories and verses, where I'd often stray.

From the depths of despair to the heights of bliss,

Every word, every sentence, a moment of pure bliss.

Words became my companions, my solace, my might,

As I delved into pages, my world took flight.

Heroes and heroines taught me to be bold,

To weather the storms, to never lose hold.

With each turn of a page, I shed my cocoon,

And embraced the challenges, under the watchful moon.

Through the power of words, my mind found its voice,

In the vast wonderland of stories, I made my choice.

So here I stand, a testament to the magic of the written art,

For in the realm of books, I found my growth, my part.
