A Mass Reading

A child has never died in a mass reading That true fact I am pleading, And while a child was ever reading a book Never not once was a child's life ever took. A book opens a child's imagination and mind To learn about which they were unknown and blind, It takes them to the places where they've never been before It opens the minds door. Reading a book gives a child greater knowledge More than what they'll learn in college, It takes them to different lands and to many mysteries Where they will learn of cultures and world histories. For a person to plant the greatest seed It is when they give a child a book to read, That is when society and belief goes hand in hand Never ever should a book be banned. The pen truly indeed is mightier than the sword Mysteries are created and also explored, But, the child's search is ended with a shooters murderous plan Now it is books and not guns, that they want to ban.
