Drawing a blank on a screen
with no texture,
only the tactile nature
of the keys feeding
the black letters,
square and rigid,
on a screen with no texture.
But these black letters,
square and rigid,
write enchanting stories of
prairies, mountains, lakes
and oceans; trees and grasses,
peoples, animals, fish and fowl
asking us to imagine colour and texture.
“Books may well be the only true magic.”
~ Alice Hoffman, Magic Lessons
