Question

A paragraph on the pleasure of reading poetry

Answer 1

Answer:

A book is always a source of pleasures.  It is constant companion to man in weal or woe.  It is a source of knowledge as  well as entertainment.  Books contain the best of the thoughts of their authors. Robert Southey, a well- known lover of books, wrote:

               “My never-failing friends are they,

               With whom I converse day by day.

               With them I take delight in weal,

               And seek relief in woe.”

Books are a ‘great source of entertainment and recreation.’  They share the readers’ joys and sorrows.  A lover of books comes back home a very relaxed man after a visit to the library.  For him, the library is a temple of learning and a source of pleasures.  With its excellent academic, peaceful and educative atmosphere, a library is a place of peace, quiet and serenity.  J.B. Macaulay once said,” I would rather be a poor man in a place garret with plenty of books than a king who did not love reading.” Henry David Thoreau rightly remarked, “Books are the treasured wealth of the world, the fit inheritance of generations and nations.
