Really neat poem! Makes me want to go to the library right away (though of course I always love to go to the library). You sum up a very large spectrum of the endless knowledge that fills a library. I love the very last stanza "The library is where I study for a test. And it is there that I always do my best." I think those last lines are very true.

I love your reasons why you go to the library and what you do. Most people don't look around that much, but when you do, you find a whole new world. I agree that they are wonderful places.

Comment from Tyler Dahl
Very creative way to show you appreciation for knowledge and having a place available for you to feed your desire to learn. This is why libraries are important they give people the tools to learn and discover whatever stirs in the mind.Libraries provide a safe influencing environment for minds young and old to grow. We need our libraries

Comment from Roxanna Andrews
I loved the library! As a kid we would walk to our tiny library from school, we had to cross the railroad tracks and everything. Was a big deal. I always got Dr. Susses or the Big Red Crayola. That was always the best day. I haven't been in years. Ours here is far away, but sister downloads books from it. Nice they do that. This is a very well done poem and lots of good memories.

Comment from karenina
Some think libraries are obsolete now that we can Google everything. He library offers a place for communities to come together, many offer book clubs or visiting author presentations, most have puzzles and ctosswords...and a full contingent of music, art and DVD's to lend....also fantastic children's resource centers. I go yo the library minimum of once a week...m

Dear Karenina, Thank you for your comments and review. Google does try to take the place of everything, but I think libraries will never be obsolete with all they have to offer, as you wrote in your review. Dove

Speaking to our head librarian she said attendance is way down over the last five years....which is why libraries are expanding their services to computer labs, community meeting rooms and the like.....

I have not been to a library in ages. I used to hang out at the library in high school. It represented freedom for me. Your poem is well written thank you for sharing

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
Libraries are my favourite places, the silence and the calm atmosphere alone make me want to be there. Your poem has created the backdrop I am familiar with, and the variety of books in store behind the library doors, love Dolly x
