When it comes to reading, I’m quite a pig; every word is licked up clean
Each taste has an exquisite flavor–bitter, sweet, and in between
I consume the sentences through the mouths of my eyes
I will snack on words of any shape and size
And let my brain digest them
Every paragraph makes an elaborate feast
The tastes and textures-a hundred at least!
The symbols always taste the best
And take the longest to digest
The dialogue is just divine
Quotations and tags are always so fine
Similes are some great stuff
I can never get enough
Metaphors are like chamomile tea
Subtle but strong enough for me
And any other writing technique
Tastes new and special and very unique
Books, stories, fables, and tales, see–
Reading will never fail me
