ON GIVING BOOKS

I  give books
In the hope
They will be
Read by

The recipients
So they will

Challenge
They're misconceived
Stereotype concepts
Of other people

And of history

Nice one, Ken. I was fortunate enough to have become an 'internet friend' with Rick Summat (CoolHermit) and he used to give away his books too. He lived in a fairly run-down area outside of Hull, and he had a hand cart that he used to fill with his books and post them through the letterboxes of the more affluent houses.... in the hopes of opening their eyes to 'another way of life'.
It is a noble thing to do my friend. You are to be congratulated.
Blessings, Allen

Planting a seed! One hopes that the seeds take root, and bear fruit in knowledge, compassion, broad-mindedness, and kinship.
