I watch you excited about your library
Passionate about the kids you serve
Seeking to connect with them
You begin your journey reading popular books
Why, because you want to know what they like to read
What motivates them to pick a book up
The cadres of the middle school years
Flooding back before you
Knights rescuing fair damsels
So many heroic stories
Then factual excursions lead onward
Replaced by adventures of times long ago
Then reaching towards times to come
Or times and places which never were
Yet both enrich our human needs
Quenching the unending thirst
Tapping into the richness of existence
With every book which is opened
Doing so reveals new opportunities
Readies you to help your students
Knowing where to best to guide them
A librarian's journey never ends.
