Unit 11 Lesson 1 Poem ''Books''
Books
By Eleanor Farjeon
As one opens them and looks,
New ideas and people rise
In our fancies and our eyes.
The room we sit in melts away,
And we find ourselves at play
With some one who, before the end,
May become our chosen friend.
Or we sail along the page
To some other land or age.
Here’s our body in the chair,
But our mind is over there.
Each book is a magic box
Which with a touch a child unlocks.
In between their outside covers
Books hold all things for their lovers.
Paraphrase of each line of Books by Eleanor Farjeon:
“What worlds of wonder are our books!”
Books are like doors to amazing and magical places. They are full of surprises and fun things.
Bangla: বই হলো আশ্চর্য ও জাদুময় জগতে যাওয়ার দরজা। এর ভিতরে অনেক চমক ও আনন্দের জিনিস থাকে।
