A hardback cover,
Hundreds of pages,
Thousands of words,
Hours of happiness.

A thrilling story,
Dozens of characters,
Hundreds of laughs,
Hours of happiness.

A heart-wrenching ending
Dozens of twists,
Hundreds of tears,
Hours of happiness.

I figure that a lot of people on this site would appreciate a poem about the joy and sadness of a good book.
