A POEM FOR THE DAY AFTER WORLD BOOK DAY

 SEASONAL NOTICE FROM THE RSPB*

Think of her.

Small, alone and afraid.

Abandoned in a dusty, forgotten corner.

The joy that once flooded through her

Has now been drained away. 

The people who once loved her

Have now cast her

From their minds. 

Think of her. 

Will you give her a home?

Will you pick her up

And caress her

With your caring hands?

Will you show her she’s wanted

And help her remember

That a book is for life

And not just World Book Day?


*Royal Society for the Protection of Books
