Hush the halls of sleeping poets
like columns of ancient Sequoias,
seeding their voices through the mind song
into whispering leaves of paper
centuries years old.
The library is a forest trail
of trained muses
who empower the imagination
wherever they sprout.
A perfect interpretation of a library and its contents.
