Today’s word is “bibliopole” ... a bookseller, especially a dealer in rare or used books. (Dictionary.com)
Tomes
Where are all the beautiful words,
Bound in elegant leather,
Ancient secrets, stories and rhymes,
Collections saved all together?
A bibliopole’s work is never quite done
There are always more volumes to find,
People are hungry for unusual pages,
To satisfy egos and minds.
Somewhere in a safe is the item they seek,
Or maybe a box faraway,
The rarest of rare books; a treasure,
For which they search night and day.
