Question

Read the excerpt from "A Poem for My Librarian, Mrs. Long.”


But she nonetheless brought the books
Back and I held them to my chest
Close to my heart
And happily skipped back to grandmother’s house
Where I would sit on the front porch
In a gray glider and dream of a world
Far away

I love the world where I was
I was safe and warm and grandmother gave me neck kisses
When I was on my way to bed
