Missing the fragrance
Loss of the reading culture
That soothing texture
Of each new page.
Gone is the chance .

Vanishing zeal
To be in a corner and read
With electronics taking the lead
Can we do something?
To bring back the glee?

It's not too late.
We can still try.
While reading smile, laugh or cry.
Feel the touch of a book.
Try and let them be your mate.

Hii Guys! I tried an elevenie(Eleven or more stanzas arranged in a group of five). Hope you liked it.

Thank you JumbledSymphonyfor introducing me to this form of poetry.

I used eye rhyme in the first stanza .

(words which have similar spelling but different pronunciations.

Example: Grow- Now, daughter-laughter, etc.).
