"Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought

and the thought has found words

- Robert Frost

I met a little elf man once

Down where the lilies blow

I asked him why he was so small

And why he did not grow

He slightly frowned and with his eyes

He looked at me through and through

"I'm just as big for me," said he,

"As you are big for you"

-J K Bangs

 “From that time on, the world was hers for the reading. She would never be lonely again, never miss the lack of intimate friends. Books became her friends, and there was one for every mood.” — Betty Smith, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.
