Books and Manuscripts

I wrote a short poem reflecting on the antique books and manuscripts displayed in the library. It focuses on distinctive qualities I found appealing and intend to investigate further.

 
Magnificent manuscripts
Beautiful books
Decorative text & images
Elaborate looks

Race ancient collections
Uncovered to see
History & culture
Now discovered by me

Delicate & fragile
Fragments of the past
Preserving faded pages
Wanting memories to last
