    Great poem, Joanne. A book is undoubtedly the best companion ever possible for humans. It teaches us new things and transports us into mythical realms of fantasy and magical places of which we can only dream. Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks, Chitrangada, for sharing Joanne's work.

    My favorite line. "You travel far but stay in your comfy chair."  Do you see how uncomfortable travel has become? We might as well settle down to read. Good read! Thanks for sharing.

    Ho Joanne,

    Well done and well said. I am a lover of books, poems and friends. And I have read all my books at least twice, some more.

    Thanks for sharing our wonderful Hubber friend Chitra-(I believe I saw your name spelled this way for a shorter version.) If we did not have you--I would not know about all these wonderful people.

    Thanks,

    Bobbi Purvis

      Hi Bobbi Purvis!
      Thank you for your kind words.
      My name is ‘Chitrangada’ as you know. Yes, I did notice that some writer friends have shortened it. Anyway, it’s a pleasure to interact with you all.
      Thank you.

    Joanne...
    It's definitely hard to put a good book down.

    My mother reads them from beginning to end nonstop.
