POEM: Books Are a Girl's Best Friends

I grew up surrounded by books.
My home was a temple of books,
And my parents taught me the love for the written word.
Now I am a writer.
When I was a little girl,
My favorite fairy tale princess was Belle.
She loved books more than anything else in the world.
When the Beast took her hostage,
He found a way to win her heart.
He gave her what she loved the most – books.
He shared the most valuable treasure in his castle with her, his library.
And she fell in love with him
When I was a little girl,
I loved imagining myself as Belle who entered the castle library in awe,
Welcomed by books and surrounded by friends.
Books are a girl’s best friends.
