Not quite the same
as standing up from my desk,
reaching to the top shelf of my book-case,
searching for the worn green cover,
‘The New Roget’s Thesaurus
Revised Edition.
Essential for Home, school, office.’
An old friend
always there,
ready to help define
what I am thinking.
No on or off buttons,
keys, batteries or lights.
Simple synonyms
for my simple life.
