“I have always imagined that Paradise
will be a kind of library.”
Jorge Luis Borges

Hallways of the mind

defining moments in books

and secret nooks

Stairways of the mind

a mind-boggling maze

clouded in a heavy haze

Tunnels of the mind

darkness at the bend

light at the end?

Paths of the mind

thoughts in need

where will they lead

paradise lost

paradise found
