books poems 3

i agree with Meihan Boey
that books never yell at you
Poems don't either. 
they just draw you in and 
soothe you so
Here is my personal dispensary, 
Try it out and see

For a headache, read Howl

For heartbreak, read [you fit into me]

For one of those days 
read Men are like Bloody Buses

For when you are homesick, 
read La Mian in Melbourne 

For love's steady heartbeat,
read Shall I Compare Thee to a Summer's Day

For inspiration in dark moments 
read If

For when you are grieving,
read Stop All The Clocks 

For when you mourn a hero, 
read Oh Captain My Captain

For a dose of shock and awe, 
read Lady Lazarus

When you are sick of homework, 
read Homework Machine 

When you are tired of Literature read Introduction to Poetry 

When you are bored in a meeting read Celia Celia 

For a laugh any time of the day, read Brian Bilston 

For when you are sick of fairy tales read Roahl dahl's revolting rhymes  

For when you want your mind blown away, 
Read The Brain - is Wider than the Sky-

and 

When you feel overwhelmed by this world 
read The Peace of Wild Things 


---‐-------


For when you are feeling rather pensive, 
read Daffodils by Wordsworth

When you need to defend libraries libraries or reading read Don't go into Libraries by Alberto Rios

For when you are lost 
Read The Road Not Taken


A  
I agree wholeheartedly that books never yell at yothey are always there, waiting for you

because I could not stop for death

if by Rudyard kipling 
Wendy cope 
for a laugh, read the future kok wei Liang
