Read Yourself Away

In the Library Read away with Craig Bradley That Poetry Bloke



Sometimes i forget just how many poems i have written. There are poems that i read out in schools and then there are othes that just wait in the book until i happen to come across them. Well i was in Chester library on saturday performing some poems when Carol, the library lady asked if i could write a song about the library. I started writing some words and it rang a bell in my head. I thought i have done something like this before. I wrote a poem a while ago called Read Yourself Away and i dug it out and put it to music. Sometimes its a good thing to go back and have a look at some old poems that you have written and give them a chance!!











Click the play button to hear the song I hope you enjoy it!!



Read Yourself Away

In the library you'e never alone
with a world of books to call your own

Monsters, pirates, wizards and elves
are waiting for you on the shelves

Books with maps, books with cars
books with horses, books with stars

Books are just like little boats
flowing with the tide

they'll open up a brand new world
and take you on a ride

If you've never been on one
why not start today?

Sail into a sea of books
and read yourself away
