Refuge

by Brittany Crouch

Libraries are filled
With many books
That are filled
With many worlds

They are like
Train stations
With endless stops
Full of
Different people
Doing
Different things

They can
Smell like a
City
Look like a farm
And
Sound like a
Far-off galaxy,
Without even
Changing shelves

Princes, paupers
Aliens, dwarves
All come here
To find refuge
On the shelves

Dragons, leopards
Mice and boggarts
All come here
To find refuge
On the shelves

A waitress, a dentist,
and a sailor
All come here to find
Refuge on the shelves

The library is
Like a shelter,
A refuge for all

Dedicated to Mrs. Kidd
and Ms. Chiraso
The best librarians in the world
